India register its first win on tour to Australia beating Australia by 13 runs in Canberra on Wednesday in the third and final ODI. With Australia chasing a target of 303 with just four wickets in hand and 93 runs to get in 12 overs, the game looked to be titled in India's favour but some remarkable power-hitting by Maxwell and support by Agar brought the hosts back in the hunt but some consistent bowling from the Indians, helped with some good fielding, ensured that India closed out the win in the last over.Jasprit Bumrah clean bowled Maxwell in the 45th and debutant T Natarajan got Agar caught at extra cover in the 48th to kill the contest in the last five.With 15 needed off the last over with one wicket in hand, Bumrah trapped Adam Zampa lbw on the third ball to bowl Australia out for 289.
Earlier, India looked up against another challenge where they found themselves at 152/5 at the end of 32 overs after Virat Kohli won the toss and decided to bat first. The top-order didn't really deliver consistently and after losing Shikhar Dhawan early, Kohli added 56 runs with Shubman Gill for the second wicket before Gill, Shreyas Iyer (19) and KL Rahul (5) departed in quick succession, and India were reduced to 123 for 4. Hardik Pandya (92 not out) and Ravindra Jadeja (66 not out), taken to India to 192 for 5 at the end of 40 overs.However, the two unleashed fury at the death as India accumulated 110 runs off the last 10 overs. The late assault took India to 302 for 6 that was a bit too much for Australia.
