India Vs Australia Test Matches, its been always a very exciting battle since a decade, but this was the most thrilling one amongst the matches ever played and finally India won the match with 1 wicket, thanks to the brilliant innings by Very Very Special VVS Laxman on the 5th day with 73 not out in just 79 balls.
Laxman, who was injured with back pain, came to the bat when game was well balanced, but after departure of Sachin, Dhoni and Harbhajan, it looked almost impossible to win as still 92 runs were required and 2 wickets were in hand. But, Laxman shown his class again, (you remember he scored a blistering century on the 5th day against Sri Lanka to win a Match for India very recently), kept cool and batting with a runner, he put a match winning partnership of 81 runs for the 9th wicket with tail ender Ishant Sharma.
Finally, Laxman's memorable knock came again for India when team needed it the most and proved that he is a real match winner.
Also, India has retained the Border Gavaskar Trophy as India can not loose the Two match series now.
