Match Context
Maxwell returned to the playing eleven after an injury break and came in at number seven when Australia needed 70 runs from 41 balls. Tight bowling by Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, and Washington Sundar put pressure on the Australian batsman. Maxwell attempted a slog but missed completely, and the ball clipped the stumps.
Australia had set a target of 168 runs. Despite a promising start, a sudden loss of wickets led to their downfall, resulting in a 48-run defeat. With this win, India leads the five-match series 2-1.
The next match between India and Australia will take place at The Gabba on November 8 (Saturday).
"Maxwell has been bowled five times by the mystery spinner in T20s - the joint-most against any bowler."
"They eventually lost the match by 48 runs and with that, India have taken a 2-1 lead in the five-match series."
