Watch: Team India visits PM Sangrahalaya after beating Australia in Delhi Test
India won the second Test by six wickets and retained the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Team India visited the PM Sangrahalaya on Sunday, February 19 in the national capital Delhi after beating Australia by six wickets in the second Test of the four-match series earlier in the day. ‘PM Sangrahalaya’ is a museum dedicated to the prime ministers of India who contributed in the nation's development post-independence.
The museum has several belongings of the former and the current prime ministers of India. The BCCI shared a video on their Twitter account where the players could be seen getting an honourable welcome at the museum. The video further shows head coach Rahul Dravid, captain Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and other cricketers being taken on a tour of the museum by a guide.
The BCCI shared the video on Twitter and wrote, "A walk through the corridors of history! Exploring the rich legacy of India’s Prime Ministers, who rebuilt the nation post Independence. #TeamIndia had an immersive experience at the fascinating @PMSangrahalaya, which celebrates and showcases the journey of India. @PMOIndia."

491Coming back to the Day 3 of the second Test, Australia resumed their innings on 61/1 and were looking to set a fighting total for India to chase in the fourth innings. However, all their hopes were crushed by the Indian spin bowling duo of Ravindra Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin.
The Australian batting line-up suffered a dramatic collapse as it went from 85/2 at one stage to 113 all out in the first session itself. Jadeja was the tormenter-in-chief who registered his best bowling figures in a Test innings picking up 7/42 in 12.1 overs.
In reply, India chased down the target of 115 with six wickets in hand and went 2-0 up in the four-match Test series. The third Test of the series will be played after a gap of nine days on March 1 at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore.
