NEW DELHI: Young left-handed batter Rinku Singh held his nerves despite losing three wickets in three balls, guiding India to a thrilling last-ball two-wicket win over Australia in the first T20I of the five-match series in Visakhapatnam on Thursday.
Needing 7 runs off 6 balls, Rinku started off with a four off the first ball followed with a single bringing the equation down to 2 off 4 balls. But fate had different plans as India lost three wickets in the form of Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi and Arshdeep Singh in the next three successive deliveries. India finally emerged triumphant but after having heart in their mouth in the dying minute of the game.
