The fifth day of the fourth and final Test at Brisbane saw India taking over the Gabba fortress. Wicketkeeper-batsman Rishabh Pant dictated the proceedings after playing an unbeaten knock of 89 runs from 138 balls to help his side secure a famous three-wicket win.
India completed the stiff 328-run chase with Pant hitting Josh Hazlewood for a crunching four towards the long-on region and Navdeep Saini enjoying the sight from the other end.
