Mumbai, Jan 19 (UNI) The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday announced a Rs 5 crore bonus for the Indian cricket team after the Ajinkya Rahane-led side won the fourth and final Test against Australia at the Gabba to win the series 2-1 and retain the Border-Gavaskar trophy.
India created history by becoming the first team to beat Australia in a Test match in Brisbane in 33 years after winning the fourth match by 3 wickets.
Australia had not been beaten at the Gabba since falling to Viv Richards' all-conquering West Indies side by nine wickets in November 1988.
