The team’s devastating 1-3 loss to Australia in the five-match Test series has left Indian cricket fans in shock.
The tourists, who were once dominant in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and had won historic matches against the powerful Australians in the previous ten years, failed, revealing weaknesses in a team that was long believed to be unbeatable.
Jasprit Bumrah was the only bowler to cause problems for Australia during the series, and Indian hitters suffered.
In addition to losing the prized Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the defeat prevented India from making it to the World Test Championship (WTC) final, ending their run of consecutive appearances in 2021 and 2023, where they were defeated by Australia and New Zealand, respectively.
