Former cricketers have praised India's Virat Kohli-led historic series win against Australia on their own ground. While praising the current Indian team, great opener and cricket critic Sunil Gavaskar also gave a befitting reply to the critics who tried to reduce the importance of winning the series by talking about the weakness of the current Australian team.
India captured the four-match series 2-1, which is to win its first Test series on the Australian soil. According to critics of Team India, due to the absence of Steve Smith and David Warner, who were banned due to ball tampering, India got this win, but Gavaskar refused to accept it. Gavaskar said in the program on Sony Six after the match, "If the Australian team played without David Warner and Steve Smith, then it is not India's fault. Cricket Australia could have imposed short-term restrictions on them but it was decided that one-year ban would prove to be good for Australian cricket because they wanted to present an example.
