Indian cricket fraternity appreciates Ajinkya Rahane and his team's Sydney performance
New Delhi: Indian cricket fraternity appreciated the team's brilliant performance in Sydney which helped them secure a needed draw against Australia in the third Test here on Monday.
Rohit Sharma (52), Rishabh Pant (97), Cheteshwar Pujara (77), Hanuma Vihari (23*) and R Ashwin (39*) played fighting knocks to ensure India draw the test and keep the fourth Test much alive.
Bruised. Broken. But never short of character. Really happy with how the boys fought till the end. Lots to learn and improve as we look forward to Brisbane now. pic.twitter.com/4VBZGCvbnp

BCCI chief Sourav Ganguly appreciated the performance and said: "Hope all of us realise the importance of pujara,pant and Ashwin in cricket teams..batting at 3 in test cricket against quality bowling is not always hitting through the line ..almost 400 test wickets don't come just like that..well fought india..time to win the series @bcci."
