Australian cricket team in India in 1979–80
The Australian cricket team toured India in the 1979-80 season to play a six-match Test series against India.
India won the series 2-0. It was the last series played by an Australian side before the compromise agreement between the Australian Cricket Board and World Series Cricket. It was the first time India had beaten Australia in a series.〔(Wisden Summary of Tour ) accessed 16 December 2014〕
==Australian squad==
Australia had just lost the Ashes to England 5-1 and drawn against Pakistan 1-1 during the 1978-79 summer. They had also finished a poor 1979 World Cup campaign.
The squad selected by Ray Lindwall, Sam Loxton and Phil Ridings were as follows:
*Batsmen - Kim Hughes (captain), Andrew Hilditch (vice-captain), Allan Border, Rick Darling, Graham Yallop (also reserve wicketkeeper), Graeme Wood, Dav Whatmore
*Fastbowlers - Rodney Hogg, Graeme Porter, Alan Hurst, Geoff Dymock
*Spinners - Peter Sleep, Bruce Yardley, Jim Higgs
*Wicketkeepers - Kevin Wright
*Team officials - Bob Merriman (manager), Frank Hennessy (physio)
The team was very inexperienced, with ten of the players never having toured before, and none having gone to India. Jeff Moss, Trevor Laughlin and Gary Cosier, who had been part of the 1979 World Cup squad, were not selected - they were replaced by Wood, Higgs, Sleep and Yardley. Peter Toohey, who had impressed with the bat in Australia's 3-2 victory over India in 1977-78, was also overlooked due to a poor 1978-79 test season. John Inverarity, the highly experienced Western Australian captain and former test player, appears never to have been considered for selection, despite a fine domestic season of cricket in 1978-79.〔
