In episode 155 of the 81allout podcast we review the fourth and final Test between India and Australia in Ahmedabad.

Talking Points:
- The value of Axar Patel as a bowler and batter in this series
- Has any Indian team had as much batting and bowling depth as this one?
- The pitch laid out for the final Test - flat and slow
- Australia's batters finishing off on a high note
- Ashwin's masterful spell in the first innings
- What Ashwin and Lyon do really really well
- Virat Kohli's defensive flourishes
- Will Kuhnemann play another Test?
- The political event on day 1 - and the questions cricket fans need to ask
