Ind vs Aus: Aussies Win Series, India Creates Scores of Records

Aussies will feel relieved that despite many records created against them at home, they emerged victorious. The scoreline suggests an easy win, although in effect it was one of the closely fought battle of bats in any bilateral series. Their juggernaut of world record unbeaten 19 ODIs at home stopped, and for the first time any team chased 300+ runs against them at their home. India on the other hand managed to remain at No. 2 ICC ODI Ranking and avoid the embarrassment of a whitewash in ODI Bilateral series. Interestingly, while team Australia won emphatically 4-1, player of the series went to Rohit Sharma. Check the World records, Indian records and Australian records created during this first-ever 5-ODI bilateral series on Australian soil between Aussies and India.
