India vs Australia: Suryakumar Yadav blitz, vintage Virat Kohli help ... (India Today)

India vs Australia: Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav stitched a 104-run stand to help India successfully chase down 187 and complete a 2-1 series victory.

There were positives for Australia too as Cameron Green showed once again that he can be a fine option for Australia in the T20I format. Earlier in the day, Axar Patel proved once again why he could prove to be an able replacement for Ravindra Jadeja as he broke the back of Australia's middle-order with a 3-wicket haul. When Suryakumar Yadav got out in the 14th over, Kohli once again took on the onus of being the main man in his 48-run stand with Hardik Pandya. Captain Rohit Sharma, who was instrumental in the successful chase in Nagpur with a 20-ball 46, tried to put the pressure back on Australia. It was Virat Kohli who put the pressure back on Australia after India were reduced to 30 for 2 in the powerplay. India rode on a stunning 104-run partnership between Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli for the 3rd wicket as the duo played ice and fire in the middle to defuse the Australian threat.
