Kohli gives the charge to loft Zampa down the ground

Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli crafted half-centuries before Hardik Pandya struck an unbeaten 25 off 16 as India reigned supreme in the third T20I against Australia to seize the series 2-1. Cameron Green powered Australia’s ferocious start while Tim David engineered a sound finish to the innings, ushering Australia to 186/7 after the visitors had lost the plot in the middle overs. Suryakumar and Kohli put on a 104-run stand for the third wicket off only 62 balls, an alliance that set up the chase nicely after the early wobble. Australia gave India some jitters towards the end but the hosts got over the line with a delivery and six wickets to spare.
