After the loss, India's head coach Gautam Gambhir spoke about the moments where India lost this series. Gambhir also refused to blame any one department for the loss as he believes that India needs to be better in both of them to be a successful team.
During the press conference after the Sydney Test, Gautam Gambhir spoke about the moments when India had their chances to go ahead in the series. Gambhir also gave a stunning reply to a reporter when asked about mistakes made by India.
Replying to this Gautam Gambhir said, "Pehli baat toh ye, yahaan par jo insaan baitha hai woh galtiya sabse pehle kubool karega. Toh aap uske liye befikar rahiye ki yahaan pe galtiya kubool nahi ki jayengi."
India head coach reckons that Australia could have been put under a lot more pressure if the Melbourne Test ended in a draw.
"If you see that last session in Melbourne (Day 5), Australia would have been in much more pressure with the series locked at 1-1," he added.
Where did India lose the Sydney Test?
Gautam Gambhir further lamented the opportunity to win the Sydney Test. He feels that things would have been slightly different had the Indian batters put a good score on the board in the second innings.
"I won't blame any one department (batting or bowling). Overall, if we want to play well, we have to perform better in all the departments," the former India opener claimed.
India fight but Australia cruise to win
But the batting line-up fumbled and the team couldn't handle the might of the Australian bowlers on a spicy pitch. Apart from Rishabh Pant, no other batter was able to make his mark when the team needed them.
The target wasn't big and the hosts knew that they would be in control with just one good partnership. Jasorit Bumrah's unavailability didn't help India's cause as well. Australia chased down the target with six wickets in hand and regained the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
