Boland played a crucial role in Australia’s six-wicket win in the fifth Test at the Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG) on Sunday, January 5. The right-arm pacer registered his career-best figures of 10/76. Boland helped Australia secure a 3-1 series victory, allowing them to regain the BGT for the first time since 2015.
"That will be nice. It's been a really enjoyable couple of months. I didn't think I would take too much part in the series. But I was prepared. Just got my body right, did some gym work and here I am. [The win] It was awesome. To win 3-1 against India, hasn't been done for a while. It was awesome. I am just happy to play the part whenever possible," said Boland in the post-match presentation.
