5 Indian batsmen who have tormented Australia in Tests

#4 Sunil Gavaskar

Gavaskar tormented the Australian fast bowling line-up with his flawless batting technique

Sunil Gavaskar is widely regarded as one of the greatest Test batsmen ever to have played this beautiful game. Gavaskar, nicknamed as "Sunny", was always at his best when he played against the Australian Cricket team. The Little Master played 20 matches against Australia, scoring 1550 runs at an impressive average of 51.67 runs per match.

The Mumbaikar's ability to easily handle the fast bowlers helped him dominate the games even in alien territories.

Against Australia, he scored eight centuries from his 31 innings. It included three consecutive centuries in Australia in 1977. His century at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) during the same series earned a rare away-win for India in Australia.

The Test series between India and Australia has been called "The Border-Gavaskar Trophy" since 1996 to honor the contribution of this Indian legend to World Cricket.
