- India is yet to get over its giddy excitement with the recently completed cricket Test series that was truly one for the ages. After being written off by all experts post the Adelaide Test (where India recorded its lowest ever score of 36), India bounced back to win at Melbourne, draw at Sydney and pull off a miracle at the Gabba in Brisbane (where the last time a visiting team won was in 1988). To help us unpack what happened we have an Australian and Indian perspective from Gideon Haigh, senior cricket writer and Sharda Ugra, sports journalist.
Gideon Haigh is one of the great cricket observers and writers of our times. He is an independent journalist, in the trade for nearly four decades. He was born in London, went to school in Geelong, and now lives in Melbourne.
Sharda Ugra has spent more than three decades in sports journalism, working with Mumbai tabloid Mid-Day, national daily The Hindu, India Today magazine and ESPNcricinfo and ESPN India. During this time, she has written and spoken about issues around Indian sport at home and abroad in popular and academic publications.

Fabulous chat… Gideon is the Guru Vasishta of Cricket
This is great and deserves more views. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole chat.
And there are people from my generation who thought that we are going to win the Gabba test when Shardul and Sundar did their partnership.
Gideon is a bit too harsh on the Australian bowling. They were exceptional at least Pat Cummins and Hazelwood were.
Hazelwood snarling and Cummins running in like a gladiator and never giving up is what made this an exceptional series.
Thakur 67 n 7 for
He is my man of the match
And just like Gambier 97 won the 2011 wc
Keep up the good work! IMO the Thakur-Sundar partnership set up the match. Thakur was my player of the match.
Australian commentry is just amazing
given that this is on TH-cam, it would have been nice to see the faces of the speakers...gives the discussion another dimension.
very insightful conversation
With all due respects, Sharda Ugra suggesting that Indian series win in Australia is equivalent to Afghanistan or Bangladesh doing something similar in India is preposterous.
How can you compare this scenario with afghanistan and bangladesh
