India vs Australia, Final Test ended in a draw - Australia wins the series 2-1


The 4th and final test match between India and Australia has ended in a draw. Australia won the series by 2-1.

India, in their second inning made 269/7. Sehwag batted into the final session on his way to making 151 and the Indians retreated home with a 2-1 series defeat but having regained some pride after losing the first two Tests.

With Ricky Ponting off the field because of a back injury, Adam Gilchrist captained the Australians for his final day of Test cricket. Fittingly, Gilchrist - who set a world record for Test dismissals on Friday - took Sehwag's scalp. The 29-year-old tried to open the face of the bat to play the ball behind point but sent a slight edge through to Gilchrist, who had to be alert for the catch.

Sehwag departed to warm applause in a match which was played in a palpably better atmosphere than the first two, when relations between the two sides threatened to deteriorate completely.

Sehwag completed a 13th Test century from just 123 balls after taking a single off Mitchell Johnson in a knock that included 11 fours and two sixes.

This was the last test match for Australian wicket keeper and vice captain Adam Gilchrist, as he also made the record of highest number of dismissals in test cricket behind the wickets.

Man of the Match - Sachin Tendulkar

Man of the Match - Brett Lee

Series - Australia wins the series 2-1.
