October 13, 2017 20:26

The umpires have decided to call off the third and final T20 International between India and Australia because of a wet outfield.

The three-match series will finish 1-1, leaving a huge gathering at the Rajiv Gandhi International stadium in Uppal, Hyderabad disappointed as they return home empty-handed, having waited patiently for nearly two hours.

India won the rain-hit opening match in Ranchi by nine wickets via the Duckworth-Lewis method. Australia made a superb comeback in the next game as they thrashed India by eight wickets in Guwahati.

The next series for India will be the limited overs series against New Zealand, with the opening ODI to be played in Mumbai on October 22.
