whichMumbai (Maharashtra): Voot Select is all geared up to take cricket aficionados on a nail-biting journey of the 2020/21 India tour of Australia in its upcoming web series, titled ‘Bandon Mein Tha Dum’. Ahead of its release, the platform launched the riveting trailer of the Neeraj Pandey directorial at its launch event in Mumbai, to give viewers a sneak-peek into India’s historic win against Australia, the world’s no. 1 Test side. The web series will soon premiere exclusively on Voot Select.

Coupled with a powerful script, behind-the-scenes footage, candid narratives from the winning squad like Ajinkya Rahane, Ravichandran Ashwin, Cheteshwar Pujara, Mohammad Siraj, Rishabh Pant and Hanuma Vihari, their coaches, as well as journalists who covered the series, ‘Bandon Mein Tha Dum’ sheds light on the trials and tribulations that the Indian cricket team had to navigate ahead of their unforgettable victory against Team Australia at their home ground of Gabba, where they hadn’t lost a Test match for 32 years.

Talking about how ‘Bandon Mein Tha Dum’ came about, Neeraj Pandey shared, "Bandon Mein Tha Dum is an epic tale that outlines ‘Miracles do happen and it happened in the India-Australia Test series 2020/2021 which culminated in India’s stunning defeat of the world no.1 test side at their hallowed home turf of Gabba where they hadn’t lost a test match for 32 years. Nothing excited me more than retelling this story which went beyond high-quality cricket, hard work, perseverance, determination, commitment, sportsmanship and decoding of the x-factor through the mind of the players who repeated the David Vs. Goliath story!"

Cricketer and captain of the series, Ajinkya Rahane added, “This has been one of the most satisfying tours for us as a team. We tackled various obstacles to emerge victorious, something which seemed difficult to many outside the team back then. It has been an emotional journey for all of us. Bandon Mein Tha Dum beautifully encapsulates this journey.”

An enthralling cricketing journey rife with peaks and troughs surely makes for a compelling watch for all the cricket fanatics out there!
