A game that ebbed and flowed, but Australia managed to emerge victorious and seal the series. There is a quick turnaround for both sides, with just a day's gap between the second and third ODI. This is particularly challenging for India, with all three seamers having experienced cramps here in Adelaide. The third and final ODI of the series will take place at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Saturday, 25th October, with the first ball set to be bowled at 9 am IST (3.30 am GMT). While Australia will be aiming for a clean sweep, India will look to register a win in Sydney and carry the momentum into the T20I series that follows. For now, though, you can tune into the Women’s World Cup action, where India are off to a dream start with the bat in a crunch game against New Zealand. Cheers!

Australia's skipper, Mitchell Marsh expresses his delight after Australia's series win, enjoying the electric atmosphere of playing in front of a big crowd in ODI cricket. He praises Josh Hazlewood's wicketless spell, calling it one of the best none-fors he's ever seen. Marsh also commends the team's batting performance. He teases some of the younger players, jokingly calling one 'Chaos,' and expresses optimism about Australian cricket's future with talented young players. Shares that with a short turnaround before the next game, the team plans to celebrate in the dressing room.

The captain of India, Shubman Gill feels that they had just enough runs on the board, but it is never easy when you drop a couple of catches. Mentions that there was a bit of movement in the new ball during the second innings, but as the ball got older, it got better to bat. Feels that in the first game, the toss was crucial with the rain around, but not so much in this game. Shares that it was not easy early on but he is pleased with the way Rohit Sharma batted.

Adam Zampa is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his brilliance with the ball. Zampa says it's great to have beaten India, highlighting the intense rivalry between the two teams in ODIs. He praises India's ability to adapt to conditions, acknowledging their status as one of the top teams globally. Shares that he is lucky to have guys like Starc and Hazlewood doing the job in the Powerplay and it makes his life easier in the middle phase. States that Mitchell Marsh shows no emotions at all and lets the bowlers run their show.

Time for the presentation ceremony...

After being inserted to bat, the Indian top order faced a stern examination from the Aussie quicks, with the ball darting around off the seam. Rohit Sharma looked all at sea early on, but managed to weather the storm. His 118-run stand with Shreyas Iyer brought some stability to the Indian innings. Once that stand was broken, Australia kept striking back whenever India looked to build momentum, largely through Adam Zampa. A late 37-run stand between Arshdeep Singh and Harshit Rana helped the visitors reach 264. Josh Hazlewood tested the Indian batters throughout but was unlucky to finish wicketless. Xavier Bartlett did the early damage and ended up with three wickets, while the damage in the middle overs was done by Adam Zampa, who finished with four wickets.

Short was dropped twice, on 23 and then on 55, the latter being the easier of the two, and that reprieve came at a crucial stage when India had their tails up following Alex Carey’s departure. Cooper Connolly’s counter-attack steadied Australia and put them back on course. When Short finally fell, Mitchell Owen walked in and immediately showed intent to take the wind out of India’s sails. Owen took the attack, while Connolly dropped anchor, and it was Connolly who eventually saw the side home despite a late wobble.

Chasing 265, Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh were watchful early on, and to be fair, India’s new-ball attack didn’t give much away. Marsh couldn’t make much of an impact, while Head got a start but couldn’t kick on. Matt Renshaw and Matthew Short then came together to build a solid partnership. With two left-handers in the middle, Australia looked in control, but Renshaw’s departure opened a window for India. Spin from both ends allowed the tourists to apply some pressure.

It got a bit nervy towards the end, but the series is in the bag for Australia! Not at full strength and with the batting unit in transition following the retirements of Steven Smith and Glenn Maxwell, this win will feel special, especially after losing their last two ODI series at home. 264 was under par, and India fought hard with the ball, but it was not enough on the night. All the talk coming into the series was about Australia’s inexperienced middle order, and they have certainly shown their mettle through this chase.

Arshdeep Singh To Cooper Connolly

WIDE! An extra from Arshdeep Singh seals the deal for Australia. Bumper, a bit too high for Cooper Connolly. The batter leaves it and the umpire calls it wide. Australia have defeated India by 2 wickets and they now gain an unassailable lead of 2-0 in the 3-match series with a game to go.

46.2

Arshdeep Singh To Cooper Connolly

SCORES ARE LEVEL! A bit too full from Singh and Cooper was equally good to it as he gets right on top of this and drives this to deep cover for two.

Good length around middle and leg, Adam Zampa goes for the flick off the front foot but gets beaten and is hit on the pads. This was going down the leg side.

Adam Zampa walks in.

45.5

Mohammed Siraj To Mitchell Starc OUT!

OUT! CAUGHT! Surely there isn't a late twist? Or is there one? Indian hopes reignite with the wicket of Starc. Back of a length on off, Mitchell Starc looks to play this in the gap through cover but the ball shoots a wee bit on him and Starc spoons this straight to Axar Patel at point. Australia need 5 and India need a couple of wickets.

45.4

Mohammed Siraj To Mitchell Starc

Bumper, around off, Mitchell Starc goes for the pull but gets beaten.

45.3

Mohammed Siraj To Mitchell Starc

FOUR! Starc finds the fence and Australia are just one big hit away from a victory. Pitched up on off, Mitchell Starc stands tall and punches this on the up through the left of mid off for four runs.

44.5

Arshdeep Singh To Mitchell Starc

Good length, down the leg side. Mitchell Starc goes for the flick on the leg side but gets beaten. Starc is stunned by the decision of the umpire not to call it wide. Maybe the umpire reckons that it brushed something on the way to the keeper.

44.4

Arshdeep Singh To Mitchell Starc

Absolute jaffa. Good length pitching around the fourth stump and shaping away from the batter. Mitchell Starc prods in front and looks to punch this down the ground but gets beaten.

Mitchell Starc is in next with Australia needing 10 runs for the win.

44.3

Arshdeep Singh To Xavier Bartlett OUT!

OUT! CAUGHT! On a length, angling away from the batter. Xavier Bartlett stands still and looks to loft this over mid off. Gets it off the bottom of his bat and hangs it over Shubman Gill at mid off. Gill backtracks and takes a good catch around the circle. Australia still need 10 and they have got 3 wickets in hand. Easy pathway for the Aussies from here despite this wicket.

44.2

Arshdeep Singh To Cooper Connolly

Good length on middle and off, Cooper Connolly smashes this to deep cover for one.

44.2

Arshdeep Singh To Cooper Connolly

WIDE! Bumper, around off, Cooper Connolly looks to pull but misses out. A polite appeal from KL Rahul and Arshdeep Singh but the umpire shrugs this off. Waits to see the reaction of the Indian players to see if they are looking to send this upstairs or not. Once he sees that it was just a soft appeal, the umpire gestures for a wide for height.

44.1

Arshdeep Singh To Xavier Bartlett

Good length wide of off, Xavier Bartlett hits this to deep mid-wicket for one.

Arshdeep Singh (7-0-33-1) returns to the attack. The mandatory concussion check for Cooper Connolly is done and we are ready to resume.
