Australia beat India to reclaim Border-Gavaskar Trophy and enter WTC final

Al Jazeera  

Hosts seal a six-wicket win in Sydney Test to clinch the series 3-1 and set up a World Test Championship final against South Africa. Australia have beaten India by six wickets in the fifth Test of their five-match series and won back the Border-Gavaskar Trophy for the first time in a decade. “It’s unreal, it’s been an amazing series,” Australia skipper Pat Cummins said shortly after the win. “I’m immensely proud, I absolutely love playing with these guys and it’s been a lot of fun along the way as well.” India captain Jasprit Bumrah was unable to bowl in Australia’s second innings because of a back issue but his fellow pace bowlers Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj kept the match on a knife edge by removing four top-order Australian batters. So you stick tight and double down on what makes us a really good side.” Australia handed out three debuts during the series – opener Nathan McSweeney who was axed after the first three Tests, the man who replaced him, Sam Konstas, and all-rounder Beau Webster in the fifth Test.
