Australia vs India Match Review // 2nd Test

India won the 2nd test against Australia by 8 wickets and level the series by 1-1. Winning a test in Australia is always challenging for any subcontinent cricket playing team. But India played really well though King Kholi didn't play this match. Rahane appeared as a good captain in test. Now i'm going to shortly review the match.
