**Sydney, Australia – January 5, 2025** – Pat Cummins’ Australia has ended a ten-year wait, reclaiming the Border-Gavaskar Trophy with a resounding 3-1 series victory over India. The final Test, played in Sydney, saw Australia triumph by six wickets, marking their first series win against India since 2014-15.
India, who had previously dominated the series, winning four consecutive series including two away matches, started strongly with a win in Perth. However, Australia fought back, leveling the series with a win in the Adelaide pink-ball Test. While the Brisbane match ended in a draw, Australia secured victories in Melbourne and Sydney to secure the trophy.
This win also secures Australia’s place in the World Test Championship final for the second consecutive year, where they will face South Africa. The last time Australia won the Border-Gavaskar Trophy was a 2-0 home win against India during the 2014-15 season.
