KL Rahul led the charge as India made light work of a paltry target of 106 to help India win the final Test with five sessions to spare and clinch the series 2-1 as cricket finally took center stage in a high-profile series that was marred by controversies both on and off the field.
Brief scores: Australia 300/10 (Steve Smith 111, Matthew Wade 57; Kuldeep Yadav 4/68) and 137/10 (Glenn Maxwell 45, Matthew Wade 25*; Jadeja 3/24, Ashwin 3/29) lost to India 332 /10 (Rahul 60, Jadeja 63; Nathan Lyon 5/92) India 106/2 (KL Rahul 51*, Ajinkya Rahane 38*)
Lunch is served! :P

Lost 3 Tosses
Controversies
Sledging
Off field mind games
Kohli injured
Won the series: 2-1
Fightback Level: Indian Team
Coming back from a loss in the 1st Test and winning it in style! No.1 team for a reason!
Forget the jibes, barbs, DRS, Brain-fade, pitch-talk.... In the end, the better team won.
— Nikhil Naz (@NikhilNaz)
Hence proven, not a one man team!
We won without Kohli contributing anything as a batsman or as a captain, Thank you Virat Kohli, please retire.

13 Tests, 10 wins and just one loss - this is a special bunch of players
Another feather in the hat for K.L.Rahul!
Rahul is the first batsman since Graham Gooch in 1993 to make 6 50+ scores in a Test series vs Australia.
