NAVI MUMBAI: Alyssa Healy led from the front as Australia beat India by seven wickets in the deciding T20I to win the three-match series 2-1 at the DY Patil Stadium here on Tuesday. The Aussie skipper kept well, marshalled her resources to perfection and topped it up with her 16th T20I half-century to guide Aussies to their fifth T20I series win over India and third one on Indian soil. That she received able support from her bowlers, fielders and fellow batters made the going easy for her.
Chasing a target of 148, Healy’s 38-ball 55, which was laced with nine fours and one six, and her opening wicket stand of 85 in 10 overs with Beth Mooney (52*, 45b; 5x4) took the game away from India in a jiffy.
