Coming back to the final day of the fourth Test played at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, Australia started the Day on 6/0 with Travis Head and Matthew Kuhnemann at the crease. Ashwin picked the wicket of Kuhnemann in the first session, however, team India couldn’t make inroads into the Australian batting line-up as the pitch didn’t deteriorate enough to provide assistance to the bowlers.
With 17.5 overs left in the day’s play and Australia on 175/2, the two captains, Steve Smith and Rohit Sharma shook hands and agreed to a draw. As a result, India won the series by 2-1 and clinched their fourth consecutive Test series win against Australia and hence retained the Border Gavaskar Trophy which they’re holding since 2017.
