With India having already closed out series after winning the first two matches, Virat Kohli will be eyeing a clean sweep when he leads his team in the third and final T20I against Australia on Tuesday. While India won the series opening match on Canberra relatively easily, a contest that created that concussion substitute controversy, the second match was a closer affair. Australia were without their captain in Sydney but Matthew Wade led admirably, hitting an aggressive fifty as the hosts posted a challenging 194/5. India batters performed in unison with Shikhar Dhawan scoring fifty before late fireworks from Hardik Pandya took India over the line in the final over.
