Summary
- Harshit Rana's 4/39 bowling figures rattle Australia

- India's bowlers dominate as Australia manage only 236
On October 25, 2025, Indian bowler Harshit Rana delivered a scintillating performance in the third ODI against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Rana's scorching four-wicket haul of 4/39 in 8.4 overs left the Australian batting unit in disarray, forcing them to stumble to a total of 236 with 20 balls to spare.
Under pressure and with questions surrounding his place in the team, Rana silenced his critics with a dominant display. The Indian bowlers hunted in packs, with Washington Sundar and Kuldeep Yadav also chipping in to dismantle the Australian lineup.
The match was further highlighted by two stunning catches from Indian stars Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer, which sparked a frenzy on social media. Kohli's reverse cup catch to dismiss Matthew Short and Iyer's acrobatic effort to dismiss Alex Carey left fans in awe, showcasing the team's exceptional fielding prowess.
Despite the Australian batters' efforts, led by Matthew Renshaw's 56 and Mitchell Marsh's 41, the Indian bowlers proved too strong, restricting the hosts to a modest total on a batting-friendly pitch.
