Team India kicked off the T20I series against Australia on a promising note having won the first two fixtures. India posted 200-plus totals in the first two T20Is to earn a 2-0 lead over the ODI World Cup winners.
India batters carried forward their dominance in the third T20I but failed to win the contest. Opening batter Ruturaj Gaikwad’s power-packed century guided the hosts to a mammoth total of 222 in the third T20I. Aussie all-rounder Glenn Maxwell, during the run chase, responded with a blistering century to earn a much-needed five-wicket victory for the visitors. The win was enough for the Australia cricket team to stay alive in the five-match T20I series.
India will now be aiming to return to winning ways in the penultimate fixture to seal the series. The fourth T20I between India and Australia is scheduled to be played on Friday, December 1 in Raipur.
