2nd T20 match between Australia and India highlights: In a rain-delayed second T20I here on Friday, India defeated Australia by six wickets to tie the series at 1-1. Rohit Sharma demonstrated his six-hitting prowess with an unbeaten 46 after Axar Patel claimed two wickets in a blistering spell. The match was shortened to eight overs per side due to a damp ground, and the India skipper single-handedly assisted India in chasing down a target of 91 with four balls to spare.
Prior to it, Matthew Wade led Australia to a score of 90 for five with an undefeated 20-ball 43. In a game that was delayed by two and a half hours, Wade struck four boundaries and three huge sixes, all in the penultimate over off Harshal Patel (0/32) while skipper Aaron Finch hit 31 off 15 after Rohit called Australia to bat.

Rohit Sharma: "I was honestly fairly startled, too. Glad that worked because I didn't anticipate hitting it that hard. I've been playing that way for the past eight to nine months. In a game that is so brief, you can't really plan too much. We bowled well, and the bowlers had something to bowl against. We observed a couple full throws from Harshal as a result of the dew that started to accumulate afterwards. It can be challenging to recover from a back injury after a few months. I won't go into too much detail regarding his bowling. landed us the important wicket. We won't be doing a lot of analysis as a team. I simply want him to visit and delight. Axar's versatility allows me to utilise the other bowlers in various situations, such as deploying the pacers in the middle innings if he bowls during the powerplay. His batting is something I also want to watch. I'm glad DK had a strong finish. It had been a while since he had some downtime. Initially, I considered bringing in Rishabh, but I reasoned that Sams would bowl off-cutters, so I decided to bring in DK instead because he is already filling that job for us. Since 1:30 p.m., groundskeepers have been working to prepare the outfield.
Mr. Dinesh Karthik "Rohit tried to convince me that the bowler would act in this way, but I already had ideas. Being an effective middle order batter is important. Hitting the winning run feels wonderful. It was great to see Bumrah return. Ro with the bat and Axar with the ball stood out. We must continue the momentum. A good score is 1-1. You desire to engage in such crunch games. But more importantly, we are pleased that we were able to entertain the crowd without causing any harm."
