Khawaja and Handscomb pitch in with big knocks; Dhawan’s century goes in vain, return to form for Rohit
Seldom does a team score in excess of 350 in 50 overs and knows well that it missed out on adding another 20-30 runs!
As captain, Virat Kohli was in an unenviable position for the better part of the contest after the team posted an imposing 358 for nine. But the way, Man-of-the-Match Ashton Turner turned it around to shape Australia’s four wicket victory with 13 deliveries to spare, all the gains for India were pushed into the background.
With the series locked 2-2, Australia will travel to New Delhi for the decider with momentum firmly on its side. For those statistically inclined, it was the highest chase in India by a visiting team.
Just when India seemed to have regained control following the wickets of opener Usman Khawaja, centurion Peter Handscomb and in-form Glenn Maxwell, Australia found a hero in Turner.
Blitzkrieg
Turner smashed a timely, unbeaten 43-ball 84 dotted with six sixes and five boundaries to leave India in its tracks.
