Cricketing legends laud India after historic win against Australia

After registering terrific 31–runs win in the first Test at the Adelaide Oval, India won a Test match in Adelaide after 15 years

After registering terrific 31–runs win in the first Test at the Adelaide Oval, India attained their first Test win on Australian soil in 10 years. India bowled out Australia on 291, handing over a 1-0 lead to the visitors.

India won a Test match in Adelaide after 15 years. They last won a game here in 2003 when Rahul Dravid smashed a total of 302 runs (233 in the 1^stinnings and 72* in the 2^nd), guiding India to a 4-wicket victory.

India have never won a Test series in Australia, they would be hoping to change that this time around.

Many Cricketing legends congratulated India for their first victory in Australia since 2008 when they beat Australia in Perth.

What a way to start the series!#TeamIndia never released the pressure. Superb batting by @cheteshwar1 with crucial knocks in both innings, @ajinkyarahane88 in the 2nd innings and excellent contributions by our 4 bowlers. This has brought back memories of 2003. #INDvAUS pic.twitter.com/4gmviaKeCC

Amazing grit displayed by the Australian lower order, but this is a moment to savour for a long time for Team India. The bowlers gave it everything and let’s just enjoy this and carry the momentum into the Perth Test #AusvInd
