India Levels T20 Series 1-1 With Five-Wicket Win Over Australia in Hobart

Washington Sundar played a crucial role in India's five-wicket victory over Australia in the third Twenty20 match in Hobart, scoring an unbeaten 49 from 23 balls. This win leveled the five-match series at 1-1, with two games remaining, and marked India's continued unbeaten streak in T20I series in Australia. Australia posted a competitive 186-6, bolstered by impressive innings from Tim David, who scored a blistering 74, and Marcus Stoinis with 64 runs, but India's disciplined bowling, including key wickets from Arshdeep Singh and Varun Chakravarthy, kept the hosts under pressure. Despite early breakthroughs by Australian seamer Nathan Ellis, India managed consistent contributions from multiple batsmen, with Tilak Varma and Jitesh Sharma supporting Sundar's match-winning performance. The match highlighted India's strategic resilience and ability to chase challenging totals, setting up an exciting conclusion to the series. The fourth T20 is scheduled for the Gold Coast, with anticipation building for the remaining matches.
