 AUSTRALIA WIN BY 4 WICKETS!!! 

Aus 269-6 (49 ovs) vs India 267-8 | Scorecard


Bhuvneshwar to bowl the crucial 49th over. Haddin takes a single from the first ball before Faulkner slogs the next on the leg side for a four to get off the mark and release the pressure....10 needed from 10 balls.

He tries to take a quick single from the next ball but Dhawan misses the direct hit from the covers with Haddin way out of his crease. That could be a game turner. What a miss!

Bhuvneshwar then bowls a wide down the leg side as he misses his line with the attempted slow bouncer.

Haddin smashes the next ball through the off-side for a four and then smashes the next back past the bowler but gets just one....3 needed from 7 balls.

Faulkner turns the last ball fine for a boundary to take Australia to a thrilling victory.

Australia reach 269 for six in 49 overs to win by four wickets with an over to spare. Haddin finished unbeaten on 13, while Faulkner made nine as Australia prevailed in a tight finish for their second straight victory in the tri-series.

India's fast bowlers struggled early on but made a good comeback in the second half of their innings. Axar Patel impressed with good figures one for 45 but senior spinner Ashwin disappointed with the ball.
