India vs Australia: Axar Patel’s magic, Cameron Green’s World Cup absence, and more talking points from T20I series

India beat Australia in a hard-fought three-match series 2-1 after having their back to the wall, losing the first match.

Australia won the first match in Mohali by four wickets, but India came back stronger winning the rain-curtailed eight-over match in Nagpur and defeating the World Champions once again in the third match, in Hyderabad.

Virat Kohli who could not get going in the first two games, was back to his chasing best in the final match, staying till the last over and scoring a brilliant 63 off 48 balls.

Australia were brilliant with the bat in all three games, but their bowlers failed to defend the totals in Nagpur and Hyderabad as Indian batters ensured some brilliant batting display. India too batted well in the first match but were not able to defend a 209-run target.
