    IND vs AUS 5th T20I

    India registered a fabulous 4-1 T20I series victory against Australia and healed the wounds of several die-hard Indian cricket team fans, who were heavily disappointed after the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 final loss.

    With this win, India have now consolidated their position at the top of the T20I rankings and are looking extremely potent and formidable ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Several players of India were rested and a relatively young and inexperienced side was fielded in this series.

    All of them played exceptionally well and India had a remarkable turnaround of events from the same week that the gruelling final loss came in.

    In this article, we take a look at the top 3 talking points of the 5th IND vs AUS T20I, which was played in Bengaluru:

    1. Shreyas Iyer’s solid knock of 53 runs

    After being dismissed cheaply for just a meagre 8 runs, Shreyas Iyer staged a fabulous comeback in his 2nd match. He scored 53 runs in just 37 runs and was the backbone of India’s batting order, today.

    He smashed 5 fours and 2 sixes and had a brilliant strike-rate of 143.24. Iyer’s knock set the stage for India to get a formidable total on board.

    2. Jitesh Sharma continues his good form

    India have unearthed another fabulous wicket-keeper batter in the form of Jitesh Sharma in recent times. After playing a whirlwind knock of 35 runs in the 4th T20I, Sharma continued his good form in this game.

    He scored 24 runs in 16 balls and gave India, a good finish in this game. Sharma’s knock was laced with 3 fours and 1 six and he had a strike-rate of 150.

    3. Ben McDermott’s valiant knock went in vain

    Despite scoring 54 runs in just 36 balls, Ben McDermott’s knock went in vain as India ultimately had the last laugh. He smashed 5 sixes in his knock and it was pure entertainment to watch him weave those fireworks from his blazing blade.

    He was eventually dismissed by left-arm pacer of India, Arshdeep Singh. Rinku Singh took the catch and in many ways, it was the turning point in this high-voltage IND vs AUS game at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
