India faced a crushing defeat in Sydney Test, losing to Australia by six wickets, and with it, surrendered Border-Gavaskar Trophy after holding it for a decade. The loss is particularly painful for India, as a key moment in the match saw Jasprit Bumrah unable to bowl in the second innings, allowing Australia to secure a relatively easy chase.

Rohit Sharma was notably absent from the playing XI, while Jasprit Bumrah, leading the team, opted to bat first after winning the toss. India struggled in their first innings, managing just 185 runs. The bowlers fought back, dismissing Australia for 181, giving India a mere four-run lead.

In the second innings, India's batting faltered again, posting a mere 157 runs. Chasing a target of 162, Australia made quick work of the chase, losing only four wickets, sealing a six-wicket win, and reclaiming the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
