NAGPUR: India skipper Rohit Sharma didn’t put a foot wrong on Friday. Right from bringing in Axar Patel in the Powerplay to driving his team’s chase, the skipper aced it all. Sharma displayed a range of shots as he creamed Australian attack and carried his bat as India defeated Australia by six wickets at the VCA stadium.
After losing Hardik Pandya in the penultimate over from Pat Cummins, Rohit (46 not out) played a magnificent square-cut that meant India needed just 10 runs from the last over. Once again, Dinesh Karthik displayed his finishing act with a six and a four to level the series.
