Star opener David Warner on Wednesday admitted that Australia had been outplayed by India throughout their 1-2 Test sequence loss and credited the guests for attaining the stupendous feat.
A battered and bruised India on Tuesday claimed a three-wicket win within the series-deciding fourth Test on the Gabba, a month after being humiliated at Adelaide the place they had been bowled out for his or her lowest-ever Test rating of 36.
“… Not the result we would have liked but credit where credit is due. Well done team India on the series win. Some great stories will and have come out of this for India,” Warner, who had missed the primary two Tests attributable to a groin damage, wrote on his Instagram web page.
“For us, we fought hard and did our very best, but we were outplayed. Well done to @patcummins30 for a man of the series.”
India chased down 328 on a fifth day pitch on the Gabba, regardless of Pat Cummins’ four-wicket haul. The sequence win Down Under handed India 430 factors to leap to the highest spot within the World Test championship standings forward of New Zealand (420) and Australia (332).
Warner stated Australia will now look to concentrate on their tour of South Africa to remain within the race for the WTC title.
“This is why we love the game of test cricket, it’s very very tough and takes a lot of mental strength. Onto South Africa now and need to win to stay in the test championship race,” he wrote.
Australia is scheduled to tour South Africa in February and March to play three Test matches.
