After winning the Border–Gavaskar Trophy, team India coach Ravi Shastri said, “Feeling defeated is one thing but giving up is not in our vocabulary, the team showed it. Virat (Kohli) may not be here but his character and personality stamp are there for everyone to see in the team as well. For Ajinkya (Rahane) to take over the way he did was simply unreal.”
India won the fourth and final test match of the series against Australia, at The Gabba in Brisbane and retained the Border–Gavaskar Trophy.
