3. November 22-25: India vs Australia (1st Test, Border-Gavaskar Trophy, 2024-25)

The first clash from the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy would be one of this year's best test matches and one of those red-ball clashes that will be remembered for ages. Rohit Sharma didn't lead the Test due to family commitments, and the side was led by their reliable pacer, Jasprit Bumrah. While it appears that Australia will once again defeat India in Perth after dismissing them for 150 in the first innings, things just started to unfold.

India had other intentions, as they stormed back as hard as they could and bowled out Australia for 104 before scoring 487 in the second innings, setting Australia a massive 534-run goal to chase. The host squad ultimately disintegrated and were all out for 238 runs, giving India a 295-run victory and enhancing their win streak on the prominent Perth. Jaiswal's first-innings 161 runs off 297 runs was the match's USP. And it was the man, the myth, the legend, Jasprit Bumarh, did it all and made it possible.
