Winning matches in Australia is tough, and clinching Test series against the hosts in their own backyard is even more daunting. However, India led by Virat Kohli managed to do the impossible and became the first Asian nation to win a Test series in Australia in the 2018-19 Border Gavaskar Test (BGT) series.

After gaining a 2-1 lead after the Boxing Day Test, India managed to draw the fourth and final match at Sydney and win the coveted BGT trophy, which led to massive celebrations for fans and supporters of Team India, who stormed the team hotel in the city.

The famous 'Bharat Army' welcomed Kohli and Co. at the team hotel, who were soon joined by members of the victorious side in celebration and grooved on the famous 'Mere Desh ki Dharti Sona Ugle, Ugle Heere Moti" song. 

Firstly, Hardik Pandya started dancing with the fans, following whom skipper Kohli, Rishabh Pant, head coach Ravi Shastri and others joined. 

Kohli was seen recording a video from his own phone as well, as Pant, and Ishant Sharma grooved.
