Coming in to bat at No. 6 in the 26th over, Pandya scored his first boundary on the delivery he faced in the 30th over. With India losing captain Virat Kohli (63) a couple of over after that, the onus was entirely on Pandya and Jadeja as the duo didn’t disappoint yet again in this series.
It was on the second delivery of the 44th over when Pandya ran a single off Australia all-rounder Moises Henriques to complete his half-century. In the meantime, Jadeja also found his touch as the southpaw smashed three fours and a six in the next over which was bowled by Abbott. Successfully finishing on a high note, Pandya scored his career-best 92* (76) with the help of seven fours and a six.
