India complete a superb 4-0 whitewash over Australia through this 6-wicket win in the fourth and final Test at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi. This Test match was over inside three days on a pitch that was heavily loaded in favour of the bowlers. However, there was some splendid batting against all odds, one of them coming from Cheteshwar Pujara who scored a brilliant 82* in just 92 balls (with 11 fours) to take India home. Ravindra Jadeja collects the Man of the Match award for his all-round performance. R Ashwin for taking 29 wickets in the Series is the Man of the Series.
