India equalled its worst ever year with Perth Test defeat
The Indian Test team equalled its worst-ever year in terms of number of Tests lost, after registering its seventh Test loss of the year at Perth on Tuesday. India matched the number of losses that Indian teams led by Datta Gaekwad, Pankaj Roy and Gulabrai Ramchand suffered in 1959 and by Sunil Gavaskar and Kapil Dev in 1983.
