Team India took a 2-1 T20I series lead with a 48-run win over Australia. Shubman Gill drew criticism for his cautious 46, while Suryakumar Yadav's form woes continued. Axar Patel's 21* steadied the lower order, and the spin trio of Sundar, Axar, and Chakravarthy dominated Australia. India now aim to clinch the series in the final T20I at The Gabba.
