India Stuns Australia in Thrilling Hobart Comeback

In a thrilling turn of events, India has bounced back from their defeat in Melbourne to pull off a magnificent triumph in the rain-marred T20I series against Australia. The visitors are now poised to take an unassailable 2-1 lead when they face off against the hosts on November 6 in Gold Coast.

After conceding a massive 186/6 in the first innings at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart, India's power-packed batting line-up rose to the occasion under pressure. Left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh and mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy provided the crucial breakthroughs, while a tight spell from spearhead Jasprit Bumrah ensured Australia finished well below the 200-mark.

In the chase, all-rounder Washington Sundar's unbeaten 49 and multiple influential cameos from the Indian batters steered the team home with five wickets to spare. This spirited fightback from Suryakumar Yadav's men has set the stage for an intriguing finale to the series.

Australia, on the other hand, will be concerned by the form of their bowling unit, which failed to maintain any significant pressure and control over the run-scoring during the Indian chase. The only positive for the hosts was the return to form of Nathan Ellis, who picked up 3/36.
