Down under

He is 35 years and 1 month old. Not an age that cricket boards across the world would endorse players to still be in any team, leave alone the national team. I remember an account that Sunil Gavaskar gave in his book - One Day Wonders. When India went to Sharjah for the Rothmans trpohy in 1985, and that was right after winning the World Championship of Cricket down under, the board and many fans were circumspect of the several OTs (over 30s) the team was carrying.

Can you tell me what "down under" means in this paragraph?
