Aussie team ‘special’

Australia skipper Pat Cummins lauded his "special" tight-knit team yesterday after they snapped a decade-long drought to win a series against India and make back-to-back World Test Championship finals.

Their six-wicket victory in Sydney ensured the hosts clinched the series 3-1, rallying after an emphatic 295-run defeat in the first game in Perth.

The bulk of the Australian side has been together for years and beating India remained an elusive goal for many of them.

Only Steve Smith, Nathan Lyon and Mitchell Starc were part of the squad that played in the last series win over their arch-rivals a decade ago.
