Ashwin to finish off his spell too. Wade keeps Australia's slim hopes alive as he gives Ashwin the charge and lofts him over midwicket for a six but the off-spinner makes a good comeback with two dot balls.

He finishes with good figures of one for 27 in four overs, while Jadeja had claimed two for 32 in his four overs as the two spinners once again impressed with the ball.

Nehra to bowl the 19th over, with Australia needing 40 runs from 12 balls for victory.

John Hastings takes a single from the first ball and Wade also manages a single from the next delivery. Infact, the two batsmen can only manage singles from the rest of the over.

A six needed off each delivery of the final over for victory for Australia, with 36 needed from six balls.

The young Bumrah to bowl the final over of the match. The first ball is a yorker which Wade drives down the ground for one.

The next ball is another quick yorker as Hastings fails to keep it out and is bowled for four.

Bumrah foxes Tye with a slower ball before he slaps the fourth ball through the covers for a four.

The last ball is a quick yorker as Tye is beaten. The last ball is on the mark as Bumrah breaches through Tye's defences to bowl him.

Australia finish on 157 for eight in their 20 overs to lose by 27 runs. India clinch the three-match T20I series 2-0 to make a strong comeback after being outplayed in the ODIs.
