"History has been made. Australia has won its first game in India in almost 13 years. Steve O'Keefe has put his name on an honour board among the very best the game has ever seen and India is in shock," a write-up in 'The Australian' newspaper said.
"A billion plus people didn't see this coming. A good 20 million plus Australians were of the same mind. Nobody outside the camp gave Steve Smith's men a chance, but they romped it in. The best bit? They beat the Indians at their own game," it said.
Sydney Morning Herald
A report in 'Sydney Morning Herald' said India's new-found resolve to use the Decision Review System (DRS) backfired spectacularly in the first Test loss to Australia.
"There were a range of different factors that led to Australia recording their first Test win in India since 2004. The tourists were much better in the field, while they outperformed the top-ranked Test side with bat and ball," the newspaper said.

"This has come in alien conditions against the world number one, who were given a lesson in how to play in their own dust bowl," The Sun Herald wrote.
"Perhaps the series-clinching victory in Nagpur in 2004 - Australia's last win in India - is the clubhouse leader, which places Smith's young side in rarefied air alongside one of the greatest teams this country has produced," it added further.
Sunday Telegraph
The 'Sunday Telegraph' heaped praise on O'Keefe for shattering 84 years of Test history in the sub-continent. "Written off as the worst Australian team to ever tour cricket's most imposing fortress, a great sporting upset is now firmly on the cards," it said.
"O'Keefe's extraordinary match haul of 12-70 now stands alone as the best individual figures by an overseas spinner ever in the sub-continent since the first match India played way back in 1933."
