Australia clinched a hard-fought victory against India in the fourth Test at the MCG, marking a significant triumph in the ongoing series. The final day witnessed a roaring crowd of 74,362 spectators, cheering on their team as they achieved a remarkable 10-wicket victory.
On a Monday at the people's ground, at the end of the best-attended MCG Test of all time, the loudest roars were all for Australia . They came, primarily, from the enormous final-day crowd of 74,362, finding their most raucous voices for Nathan Lyon’s final lbw verdict against Mohammed Siraj at 5.23pm.
