# Australia's triumph by 2-1 is their sixth series win against India in Australia, retaining the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

# The last drawn Test between India and Australia was played in Chennai in October 2004.

# Anil Kumble [Images] lost his first Test series as skipper. He had registered a 1-0 series win against Pakistan in India last year in his first series as captain.

# Virender Sehwag (151 off 236 balls) recorded his third century against Australia, his 13th century overall and his first in the second innings.

# Sehwag has produced seven centuries on foreign soil in 32 Tests and six in 22 Tests in India.

# While batting in the first innings, Sehwag has averaged 64.18 -- 3466 in 54 innings, including 12 hundreds and 9 fifties. His second innings average is 28.67-- 975 runs in 37 innings, including one century and four fifties.

# Sehwag has amassed 1000 runs against Australia in 11 Tests -- 10 Tests for India and one for ICC [Images] World XI innings.

# Sehwag, for the first time in his career, has recorded a hundred and a fifty in the same Test match.

# Sehwag (63 + 151) became the third Indian batsman to post a hundred-plus and a fifty-plus at Adelaide. Vijay Hazare (116 and 145) was the first to achieve the distinction in 1947-48. Rahul Dravid [Images] had made 233 and 72 not out in 2003-04.

# Sehwag has taken his Test batting average to 50.00 -- 4441 runs at an average of 50.46, including 13 centuries and 13 fifties in 54 Tests at a strike rate of 74.89.

# Sehwag's last nine hundreds have been 150-plus.

# Tendulkar's tally of 493 is the third best by an Indian in a Test series in Australia. Dravid had top scored for India with 619 at an average of 123.80 while VVS Laxman had missed the feat by six runs -- 494 runs at an average of 82.33, both in the 2003-04 series.

# Thanks to Ganguly's below average performance in the last four innings (9 and 0 at Perth and 7 and 18 at Adelaide), his batting average in the series fell below 30 (29.37) -- 235 in eight innings, including two fifties.
