Well, Australia's won back the border-gavaskar trophy after dominating performances in the Sydney New Year Test, the Aussies wrapped up the match on day three with Debitant. Bo Webster, great final run there, hitting the winning runs. Down the winger in the air and that'll do it. But Tasmanian, Bo Webster, hits the winning runs. Australia win the deciding test by six wickets. Yeah, that'll do it indeed. For more on Join by seven cricket commentator and cricket legend Justin Langen, live this morning. JL, good morning to you. Hey guys, how are you? What a game, what a test match. And Bo Webster, he was unbelievable. I'm sure he had the time of his life in the SCG chain room last night, but his reaction when Australia won was just so cool to watch and he's had the debue of a lifetime. Absolutely captured it, didn't it? Magic moments there. Justin, if you thought back to Perth, we're all a bit cynical, weren't we, about our team? Proved us wrong. Yeah, I remember turning up to Adelaide for the second test and I said, do not write this team off. Pat Cummins is a sublime leader. The boys have been, had an amazing couple of years, so and they've fought back so well. They could have won at four, one, they ended up winning three, one, what a result. And to get the boater-gavaskar trophy back, that makes us all feel happy who were involved in cricket. Yeah, perfect weather and perfect moments in Sydney, there is, see the boys getting to the stage. I tell you what, a bit contentious along the way though, JL, some heat between Bumra and Constas, Constas and Colley. What was going on with the Indian team in this series? Do you know what the truth is? I thought, besides the when Virat Colley bumped into Sam in Melbourne, that's not cool because there's no physical contact in cricket. I loved every minute of it. We always fight really hard as an Australian cricket team. We're renowned for it. India do as well. There's great rivalry between the two countries. Virat Colley, you love him or hate him. He's just awesome for the game. He's always up in a bad news. He's led the team and Bumra, my gosh, he is an absolute superstar and thank goodness he wasn't playing yesterday on that pitch because he would have been almost unplayable. Might have made quite a difference there and just briefly JL. One run, Steve Smith must be waking up this morning thinking about that one run shy of his 10,000. Yeah, we're all on the edge of our seat. But just imagine this, when Steve Smith made his debut all those years ago, down the track, he's got 9,999 runs and still a career to go. I reckon it'd be pretty happy. He's a superstar. He's had a great series and he had a big part in this great series for Australia. He did indeed. Great commentary from you and all the team, Justin. Good on you. Great for talking to you this morning.
