Adam Gilchrist was a destructive Test batter, but there were times when even he had a bit of a slump.
While on commentary for the 2025-26 men's Ashes, Gilchrist recalled his first Test tour of India, in 2001.
"This might sound a little bit self-indulgent, but it's more self-deprecation," Gilchrist starts while describing the hundred he scored in Mumbai on the first Test of the tour.
"[In] 2001, Australian cricket team hadn't won over there in a series for 31 years. I scored 100 off 80 balls."
Australia won the Test by ten wickets. It was a world-record 16th Test win in a row for the side, so naturally, Gilchrist, not accustomed to losing, was upbeat about the rest of the series, and ribbed his team-mates about their past results in the country.
