after scoring a competitive 258 for nine largely built around sachin tendulkar's majestic 91, the indians held their nerves in the tense dying moments to stop the australians at 249 with two balls to spare and wrap up the best-of-three finals 2-0.
it was a remarkable display by the indians who not only conquered the mighty australians in their own den but brought about a happy ending to a turbulent tour, marked by a racism row involving harbhajan singh and a series of on-field bickering.
the indians had entered the tri-series finals in 1986, 1992 and 2004 but never won. india made amends for their failures with the thrilling win at the gabba.
paceman s sreesanth dismissed james hopes in the very last over to bring india's moment of glory, triggering scenes of wild celebrations among players as they hugged each other.

india: 258 for 9 in 50 overs (s tendulkar 91, yuvraj singh 38, m.s. dhoni 36; n bracken 3/31 michael clarke 3/52)
australia: 249 all out in 50 overs (m hayden 55, j hopes 63; p kumar 4-46, s sreesanth 2-43).
