After the Adelaide debacle, where they were bundled out for their lowest Test score of 36, India bounced back emphatically against Australia to clinch the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne by eight wickets and restore parity in the four-match series.Skipper Ajinkya Rahane, who hit a magnificent century in the first innings, fittingly hit the winning runs to help India register their first Test win in 2020. Earlier in the year, India lost both Tests in New Zealand before succumbing to Australia in the first Test in Melbourne.https://t.co/eQNZo0Ou2G! 👏👏#TeamIndia bounce back in style to beat Australia by 8⃣ wickets to level the four-match series. 👍👍 #AUSvIND Scorecard 👉 https://t.co/lyjpjyeMX5 pic.twitter.com/FgepGB00uE— BCCI (@BCCI) December 29, 2020India’s win in the Boxing Day Test in Melbourne was a complete team effort.
