In the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2014-15, his form was unreal, where he smashed 4 centuries in that series against the mighty Aussie bowling attack of Mitchell Starc, Mitchell Johnson, Shane Watson, and Nathan Lyon.

India lost 1st two tests in the series and tied the remaining two. His centuries under that situation with a new responsibility of captaincy showed his unreal potential to contribute to India in the upcoming years, which he gracefully did.
