In the aftermath of Australia’s emphatic 3-1 series victory over India to reclaim the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Ricky Ponting has offered a glowing appraisal of the team’s resilience and transformation on The ICC Review.

The victory also means the hosts booked their spot in a second straight World Test Championship final where it will play the already-qualified South Africa at Lord’s in June.

Legendary Indian cricketer Sunil Gavaskar has expressed disappointment over not being invited to present the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the conclusion of the Sydney Test between Australia and India. The trophy was instead presented by the legendary Allan Border to Australia's Test skipper Pat Cummins.
