Mumbai, Jan 8 (IBNS): The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday congratulated the Indian cricket team for registering the first ever Test series win in Australia and reaffirming their No. 1 position in the ICC Test rankings.

The BCCI also announced the cash awards after the historic Test series win against Australia.

"All Test team members - The bonuses will be equivalent to the actual match-fee payable: which is INR 15 Lakhs per match for Playing XI and INR 7.5 Lakhs per match for the reserve players," the Indian cricket board said in a statement.

The board said coaches will get INR 25 lakhs each.

It said the India team's support staff (non-coaching) will receive bonuses that will be equivalent to the pro-rata salary/professional fee.

Skipper Virat Kohli and his men defeated Australia to clinch the Test series 2-1.

This was the first time India won a Test series in Australia in the history of the game.
