Recalling India’s incredible Test triumph in Australia last year despite being ravaged by injuries, batting legend Sunil Gavaskar said the performance ranks among the team’s “greatest wins” of all time and can be considered a “golden chapter” in the country’s cricket history. The heroics of Hanuma Vihari and Ravichandran Ashwin had helped secure a draw for the visitors in Sydney. “India’s win in Australia early last year will go down as one of the greatest wins in Indian cricket history,” Gavaskar said. “I was privileged to be there and see a golden chapter being written in the history of Indian cricket,” said the 72-year-old former opener. To commemorate the one-year anniversary of India’s win, Sony Sports Network has produced a special four-part docu-series, Down Underdogs — India’s Greatest Comeback, that will premiere this Friday and Gavaskar gave his comments to the channel.
