It was an unfortunate day for Australia as the match got washed out due to rain. Resulting which, India clinched the series.

India could bat for just 4.5 overs before rain interrupted play and no play was possible after the break.

However, Gill and Abhishek batted brilliantly in that period and scored 52 runs together.
