New Delhi. Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli scored half-centuries as India beat Australia by 6 wickets in the third and final T20I in Hyderabad. With this win, India won the 3 T20 series 2-1. India has defeated Australia in a T20 series at home after 9 years. In the last series held in 2019, India had lost both the T20s. At the same time, in 2017-18, the series was tied at 1-1. In the current series, India had lost the first match in Mohali. However, after this, registering victories in Nagpur and Hyderabad, the series was fisted. However, even after this victory, Indian captain Rohit Sharma is not completely happy. There are still many areas where there is scope for improvement in the team. Rohit said this after the match.
Rohit Sharma said in the post match presentation, ‘It was a big opportunity for us. We wanted to play better and we managed to do that. The biggest positive for us was that different players contributed significantly to the victory with ball and bat. When we sat in the dressing room watching all this, it felt good as a team. Sometimes you can go wrong doing a lot. This is T20 cricket and there is very little room for error. I thought we took advantage of the opportunity, we did not miss to take risks. Sometimes this thing doesn’t go in your favor. But, we will take this lesson with this match.
There is room for improvement in death over bowling: Rohit
Even though India won the Hyderabad T20 by 6 wickets. But, still the team’s bowling in the death overs is the biggest problem. The T20 World Cup is on its head. That’s why captain Rohit is also worried. He said, ‘Even if we live. But, there are many areas, especially our death bowling, which still has room for improvement. However, captain Rohit defended Harshal Patel and Jasprit Bumrah. He said that both these bowlers are returning to the team after a long time. We knew it was difficult to bowl to Australia’s middle and lower order. So at the moment, not thinking too much on it. Both these bowlers have returned from injury. Hopefully it will regain its momentum.
