The recently concluded T20I series against Australia showcased India's unwavering dominance in the format. Despite Australia's valiant efforts, India managed to defend a challenging total of 174-9, thanks to a collective batting effort from Jitesh Sharma, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Rinku Singh, and Yashasvi Jaiswal.
Australia's chase got off to a promising start with Travis Head's quickfire 31, but they faltered in the middle overs, struggling to keep up with the required run rate. The Indian bowlers, led by Axar Patel's impressive spell of 3/16, effectively stifled Australia's batting momentum. Ravi Bishnoi and Deepak Chahar chipped in with crucial wickets to restrict Australia to 154/6, securing a resounding 20-run victory for India.
