Mahesh has comprehensively covered the events of yesterday. Here are some notable points about the game
-
I would rate this India’s best win in the recent past even surpassing Leeds 2006
-
History repeated itself as India again stopped Oz’s winning streak at 16, but this time in the Lion’s den
-
India’s bunch of young medium pacers once again exposed the weakness of the world’s best batting lineup against sustained swing
-
Oz showed what champions are made of with their ‘never say die’ attitude
-
It is an indication of Oz’s dominance that while other teams try to win, they go for streaks!
-
The value of a Mathew Hayden at the top of the order
-
The good spirit in which the game was played. Hope that is sustained and Oz dont go back to their (bad) old ways of on field behaviour

Hardly a milestone. A Milestone would be a series sweep.
It is a single win & should be looked at as a stepping stone towards such things as series wins in Oz.
Congrats on the win.
