The full capacity crowd at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad was treated to Suryakumar Yadav’s explosive batting and Virat Kohli’s measured innings that saw India clinch the three-match T20 series 2-1 with a six-wicket victory over Australia at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad on Sunday.

Chasing Australia’s 187-run target, thanks to half-centuries from Cameron Green (52 off 21; 7×4, 3×6) and Tim David (54 off 27; 2×4, 4×6), India rode on Suryakumar’s 36-ball 69 (5×4, 5×6) and Kohli’s 48-ball 63 (3×4, 4×6) knocks to reach the target with a ball to spare. Both added 104 runs



for the third wicket that paved the way for the comfortable victory.

With 11 required off the final over, Kohli hit Daniel Sams to a six off the first ball to settle the nerves. Though he was caught off the next ball, Pandya hit a boundary off the fifth ball to seal the deal. Chasing the target, India didn’t have the best of starts as they lost KL Rahul (1) in the very first over when he top-edged Sams to wicketkeeper Matthew Wade.


Brief Scores: 
Australia: 186/7
India: (19.5/20 ov, T:187) 187/4
India won by 6 wickets (with 1 ball remaining)
