Australia Wins Border-Gavaskar Trophy After Decade

Australia secured the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 with a 3-1 series victory over India, marking their first win in a decade. Scott Boland played a key role in Australia's success, achieving a career-best ten-wicket haul in the fifth Test and concluding the series with 21 wickets at an average of 13.19. His exceptional performance included multiple dismissals of Indian captain Jasprit Bumrah and star batsman Virat Kohli, earning him widespread praise. Throughout the series, India struggled with inconsistent batting, crossing the 200-run mark in only three of nine innings, with Rishabh Pant providing the only substantial contribution in the final Test. Despite strong bowling efforts from Prasidh Krishna and Mohammed Siraj, India failed to capitalize on crucial moments due to dropped catches and injuries. Australia's consistent performance and strategic play ultimately led to their series triumph.
