India made history by defeating Australia comprehensively in Perth on Monday, marking one of their biggest victory margins outside Asia. The win in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy came by a massive 295 runs, highlighting India’s dominance.

This victory stands among India’s largest wins outside Asia by runs, surpassed only by their 318-run victory against the West Indies in North Sound in 2019. Other notable wins include a 279-run triumph over England at Headingley in 1986, a 272-run win against New Zealand in Auckland in 1968, and a 257-run victory over the West Indies in Kingston in 2019.

Against Australia, this 295-run win in Perth ranks as one of India’s biggest victory margins by runs. The only larger victory came in Mohali in 2008, where India won by 320 runs. Other significant wins over Australia include a 222-run victory in Melbourne in 1977, a 179-run win in Chennai in 1998, and a 172-run triumph in Nagpur in 2008.

Australia’s loss in this match also marked a rare defeat in the first Test of a home series in the 21st century. Previous instances include losses to South Africa in Perth (WACA) in both 2008 and 2016, and to India in Adelaide in 2018.

Jasprit Bumrah was the top-most bowler for India, taking 5/30 in 18 overs. Harshit Rana also impressed on debut with a spell of 3/48.

In their second innings, India swelled their lead massively. There was a 201-run opening stand between KL Rahul (77 in 176 balls, with five fours) and Yashasvi Jaiswal. Jaiswal also had a fine 74-run stand with Devdutt Padikkal (25 in 71 balls, with two fours). Later, he succumbed to Mitchell Marsh for 161 in 297 balls, with 15 fours and three sixes. An 89-run stand between Virat (100* in 143 balls, with eight fours and two sixes) and Washington Sundar (29 in 94 balls, with a six) and a 77-run stand with Virat and Nitish Kumar Reddy (38* in 27 balls, with three fours and two sixes) pushed India to 487/6. India lead by 533 runs, setting the Aussies a gigantic 534 runs to win.

Nathan Lyon (2/96) was the pick of the bowlers for Australia. Cummins, Starc and Hazlewood got a wicket each.

At the end of the third day’s play, Australia was 12/3, with Bumrah striking twice and Mohammed Siraj getting one.Mohammed Siraj’s two wickets and Travis Head’s aggressive 63 off 72 deliveries were the highlights of the first session. Australia was 104/5 on Day 4 at Lunch.

Mitchell Marsh followed soon after, dismissed for 47, as Nitish Kumar Reddy claimed his first Test wicket, bringing Australia to 182/7.
