Batting first in the fourth T20I, the Indian cricket team set Australia a target of 168 runs to win. Mitchell Marsh and Matthew Short provided Australia with a solid start, and as long as Marsh was at the crease, the hosts looked strong. But how did the tables turn? Australia collapsed for 119 runs, with Shubman Gill playing a solid innings of 46. However, in the end, the Australian bowlers made a strong comeback, and the Indian innings ended at 167.
As long as the Australian captain was at the crease, Australia was in a strong position. Shivam Dube took Marsh's wicket, followed by the crucial dismissal of Tim David.
Axar Patel, who performed brilliantly with both bat and ball in the fourth T20, was named Player of the Match. Patel played a crucial innings of 21 runs with the bat and took two early wickets for Australia. He conceded just 20 runs in his four-over spell.
Marsh and Short added 37 runs for the first wicket, followed by a 30-run partnership between England and Marsh. Marsh was at the crease, and Australia appeared headed for victory, but then Shivam Dube emerged as a game-changer. Dube had Marsh caught out. Josh Philippe was bowled by Arshdeep Singh. Glenn Maxwell returned to the pavilion after scoring just 2 runs. He was bowled by Varun Chakravarthy. Stoinis fought back, but it didn't last long. Washington Sundar bowled Stoinis, ending the hosts' last hope.
