India’s 2020/21 Test series in Australia turned from a crushing Adelaide defeat into a 2–1 Border-Gavaskar Trophy victory. The DownUnderDogs promo frames that journey from the 36-all-out shock to the series-clinching win at Brisbane; here is what happened between those points.
India lost the first Test in Adelaide, won in Melbourne, held on for a draw in Sydney and then chased down a daunting target at Brisbane. The International Cricket Council later called the series an “instant classic” in its retrospective. Read the ICC’s account of the series.

Adelaide: a collapse that changed the series
India began the four-Test series with a win in the first innings, but the match turned dramatically in the second. The team was dismissed for 36, its lowest Test total, and Australia won the opener by eight wickets. The ICC described the collapse as the defining early shock of the series. ICC retrospective.
Virat Kohli left the tour after the Adelaide match. Ajinkya Rahane took over as captain for the remaining Tests, with India needing to recover from a 1–0 deficit.

The sequence was unusually stark: from 36 all out and an eight-wicket defeat in Adelaide to a successful fourth-innings chase in Brisbane. Melbourne supplied the rebound; Sydney prevented the series from slipping away; Brisbane completed it.
