Watch: How Indian Players Were Welcomed After Their Heroic Win Against Australia

Team Indian returned as undisputed heroes from their recently conducted tour of Australia. The Ajinkya Rahane-led side achieved something which no other team could think of in the past 32 years. The ‘Men in Blue’ dismantled the Australians in their so-called fortress, Gabba. Adding to that, they won the “Border Gavaskar” Test series for the second time in a row. What makes the win more historic is the way the Indians fought with the minimal team options they had. The internet went berserk as the whole of the cricket faculty joined hands to congratulate the Indians, including some of the Pakistani legendary cricketer as well. Indian players received the welcome they deserved when they landed on their home soil.
