With this win, India leads the series 2-1, making it impossible for Australia to win overall. Australia can now only aim to draw the series by winning the final match at The Gabba.

Key Moments of the Match

The end of the game featured some comical moments. Sundar came back to bowl the 19th over. Nathan Ellis attempted a big hit on the first ball, sending it high into the night sky. Shubman Gill ran from long-on to catch it but dropped the ball. He laughed it off as he returned to his position. On the next ball, Sundar bowled to Adam Zampa, who tried to clear Gill but failed, and Gill caught the ball this time.

Bumrah’s Milestone and Final Over Drama

Jasprit Bumrah claimed his 99th T20I wicket on the last ball when Ben Dwarshuis missed a yorker, edged it clumsily, and was bowled out. Australia required 52 runs off 18 balls at that point, but the tailenders struggled against Bumrah and Sundar.
