India defeated Australia by eight wickets to level the four-match test series 1-1.
Chasing 70 for a win, it was only poetic justice that Rahane got Nathan Lyon’s winning run right as India made an exciting comeback in the series. The victory also ensures that India gets one step closer to the World Test Championship final.
Kohli said it was an amazing effort Team India and saluted Rahane on his captaincy.
“What a victory this is, an absolutely amazing effort from the entire team. They couldn’t be happier for the guys and especially Jinks who led the team to victory in an amazing way. Onward and up from here,” Kohli tweeted.
