India vs Australia 2nd T20I: Australia beat India by four wickets

India vs Australia 2nd T20I: Australia secure four-wicket win

Australia lost several wickets late in the chase but managed to cross the finish line comfortably in the second T20I against India. There were a couple of last-second dead ball calls during the 14th over bowled by Kuldeep Yadav. The first of these moments seemed to disrupt Kuldeep as he was mid-delivery stride.

This reflected the challenging nature of the pitch for batting. Upon Matt Short's arrival at the crease, Bumrah welcomed him with a yorker at 137 kph, knocking the stumps down instantly as Short failed to get his bat down in time.

Mitch Owen had a disappointing batting performance and was unable to finish the game. On the fourth ball of the 13th over, Owen edged a full delivery outside off, and Sanju Samson took the catch. Suryakumar Yadav made a good review to confirm the dismissal.

Earlier, Kuldeep capitalized on a rushed shot from Inglis, who missed his flick off the back foot on the third ball of the 12th over.

“A yorker of pin-point precision at 137 kph, Short can't get his bat down in time.”

Overall, the match was a testament to disciplined bowling and challenging batting conditions.

Author's summary: Australia overcame a tricky pitch and late wickets to chase down 126, with precise bowling and key moments sealing their four-wicket win over India.
