The end of another one-sided contest was swift with the Australians snapping up the final four wickets in an hour to skittle India for 201 and inflict an eighth away Test defeat on the trot for the demoralised tourists.
The series drubbing comes after they were similarly hammered 4-0 in England last year, but speaking after the latest reverse, stand-in captain Sehwag claimed that India could take inspiration from the lows suffered by hosts Australia in recent years.
"It happens, if you look at the Australia team also they were struggling a year back and they lost the Ashes and they got out on 47 in South Africa so it happen with every team, so we have to rebuild the team and we'll think about it."
He conceded that India's cricket-obsessed fans had every right to be disappointed with their underperforming idols but pleaded for support.
"I think they should be upset with our performances, and I totally agree with them. This is the time the fans should back the players. When we won the World Cup, everyone was happy. Everybody was cheering for Team India. Now is the time we need support from fans. They should back their own team.
