Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy: Former Australia batter Mike Hussey believes the Pat Cummins-led Test team is right up there as amongst the best sporting teams in the country. Beating India 3-1 to regain the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after a decade has meant Australia are in possession of every bilateral series win, including the 2023 World Test Championship mace.
“I think they have got to be right up there, because they’ve won pretty much everything. They’ve won the Ashes. They’ve won World Cups. I know Test cricket is different to white-ball cricket, but in Pat Cummins’ reign, this is the one they didn’t have, beating India.
“They’ve been able to keep this core group together for a long, long, long period of time. We’ve highlighted the bowling group and the amount of wickets they’ve got together. It’s been incredible.
