ऑस्ट्रेलिया vs भारत, तीसरा टी-20, एडिलेड ओवल, एडिलेड, 21 February 2026 - हाइलाइट्स

SIX! That's more like it from Ashleigh Gardner. A rank drag-down, on middle and leg, Gardner rocks back, waits for it and whacks it to the right of deep mid-wicket for a biggie.

Tossed up outside off, Gardner steps out and drives it straight to mid off.

Nagging length, on middle and leg, grips a bit. Ash hops back and tucks it between mid on and mid-wicket for a single.

FOUR! That's perfectly executed. Sutherland pre-meditates a bit and sets up for the reverse, gets the ball full on middle and swings it over backward point for a boundary.

Full and lobbed wide outside off, Sutherland throws her hands at it but miscues it to short third for a quick single.

Flatter one on middle, Gardner comes down the pitch and taps it down to long on for one. Well, the required rate before the start of this over was exactly 12 runs an over, and Australia Women have got 13 off it.

FOUR! Oh, the Aussies can feel the tide turning as Ashleigh Gardner brings up her 7th T20I FIFTY. Gardner is early to move past the leg stump and Reddy tries to follow her but angles it down the leg side. Gardner clips it past short fine leg and finds the fence.

FOUR! Easy pickings for Gardner, not good bowling from Reddy. Slow and short, well down the leg side, Ashleigh Gardner waits back and firms the pull well to the right of deep backward square leg and picks up another boundary.

Gets away with it, does Reddy. A full toss on the pads, comfortable height to hit but Gardner swings it to deep backward square leg for just a single.

Full and angled in at the toes, Sutherland lofts it over mid on without any real timing but the ball falls short of the fielder in the deep. Single taken.

OUT! TAKEN! There's that moment of magic India Women needed and it's Jemimah Rodrigues who provides it. Huge moment in the game, this. Arundhati Reddy bowls it back of a length and angles it into the batter. Ashleigh Gardner rocks back to pull and does so firmly but hits it very flat. Rodrigues charges in from the deep and almost overruns it but somehow, she manages to dive straight at it and manages to hold on. End of a valiant knock from Gardner.

Full on the legs, clipped away to deep mid-wicket for one. 48 needed off 24 balls now.

WIDE! Short and outside off, Grace Harris makes a leave at it and the ball goes past the tramline.

OUT! HIT WICKET! That is not something we usually witness, but India Women will take the wicket with open arms. This is shorter, on off and middle. Grace Harris goes deep inside the crease to sweep it deep square leg and nails it for a boundary. However, she ends up moving too deep and knocks over the stumps with the back leg. The bails fall off the stumps and the Women in Blue celebrate. Also, Sophie Molineux walks out to bat now.

FOUR! The Aussies keep swinging and Sophie Molineux gets one away first ball. Full and angled down leg, Molineux gets inside the line and sweeps it high over short fine leg for a boundary.

WIDE! Fuller, down the leg side, Sophie Molineux looks to sweep it but fails to connect the shot.

Huge appeal for LBW, but the umpire remains unmoved! Fuller, pitching on middle and turns inward. Sophie Molineux misses his slog and wears on the pad. After a long discussion with the skipper, Harmanpreet Kaur decides not to take the review.

Full, outside off, Sophie Molineux pushes it wide of point to take a single. The fielder in the region dives and makes a stop. Throws it to the keeper's end, but Ghosh fails to glove it cleanly. The ball rolls to short fine and the batter gets another run. So two runs in total.

OUT! LBW! Another appeal goes round and this time, the umpire raises the finger. This is fuller, pitching it just outside off. Sophie Molineux takes a step across the off stump to sweep it, but gets beaten on the under edge and gets pinged on her front pad. Sophie Molineux takes the review. The Snicko shows no spike when the ball passes the inside edge, but in the Ball Tracking, it shows that the impact on the pad is umpire's call, with the wickets hitting. It stays Out.

Flatter, full and outside off. Kim Garth uses her feet but yorks herself and jams it out to cover. 40 needed in 18 now.

FOUR! Annabel Sutherland is not giving up, just yet! This is shorter in length and around middle. Sutherland makes room to access the off side and punches it sweetly through covers for a boudnary.

Tossed up, full and on off, Annabel Sutherland uses her feet and lofts it to long off for a single.

Darts in a yorker, on off, Kim Garth digs it out to short third for a run.

OUT! LBW! Shreyanka Patil has three and that is probably the final nail in the coffin for the Aussies. This is a flatter delivery, full and on middle. Annabel Sutherland changes her stance to go for the reverse sweep but this is too full for that shot. She misses as the ball goes under her bat to hit the pad right in front of the stumps. There is a big shout for LBW, and up goes the finger. Sutherland takes the review but much more in hope. Snickho confirm no bat involved and Ball Tracking shows three reds, with the ball crashing into the middle stump. India Women just one wicket away form the win now.

Gets the yorker in again, outside off, Darcie Brown fails to squeeze it away.

Full toss, on leg, Darcie Brown clips it to deep mid-wicket for one. Shreyanka Patil finishes an amazing spell of bowling with figures of 4-0-22-3.

Arundhati Reddy sees the batter making room, so she follows and bowls down the leg side. Darcie Brown misses her flick and gets hit on the pad.

Fuller, down the leg side. Brown tries to heave it away, but gets nicked on the inside edge. It driblles past the short fine leg fielder and gets a couple of runs.

On a length, angling in, around the pads. Brown misses her flick on the inside edge, wears on the pad. The ball rolls to short fine leg and the batter takes a leg bye.

On a length, on leg, Kim Garth flicks it to deep square leg for a couple of runs.

Fuller again, on middle, Kim Garth clips it to deep mid-wicket for a single.

Slower through the air, fuller, outside off, Darcie Brown shuffles across the stumps and tries to sweep it, but misses on the connection and hits the back pad.

Floated, full and outside off, Kim Garth uses her feet and punches it towards covers. Harmanpreet Kaur fumbles a bit and allows a single.

Flighted, full and on middle, Darcie Brown advances to slog it but gets an inside edge onto her pads as the ball rolls to the off side. They cross.

Drags her length back and around off, Kim Garth heaves it to deep mid-wicket for run.

FOUR! Just wide! Tossed up, full and on off. Darcie Brown backs away, stays leg side of the ball. She gets her hands through the shot and smacks it past Harmanpreet Kaur at extra cover for a boundary.

BYE! Right into the block hole, outside the leg stump. Darcie Brown skips down the track and fails to clip the delivery. It rolls past the left of Richa Ghosh, who fails to glove it, and the batter takes a bye.

Deepti Sharma bowls a low full toss, on middle, Kim Garth drills it to long on. INDIA WOMEN WIN BY 17 RUNS!
