IND vs AUS, 4th T20I: Rinku Singh, Axar Patel shine as India beat Australia by 20 runs, lead series 3-1

Rinku Singh's explosive innings, coupled with a remarkable three-wicket haul by Axar Patel, propelled India to a resounding 20-run victory over Australia in the fourth T20I match held in Raipur. This victory has now secured an insurmountable 3-1 lead for India in the five-match series.

Despite a promising start from Travis Head, who bludgeoned 31 runs off just 16 deliveries, Australia struggled to maintain their momentum as they continued to lose wickets. Axar Patel emerged as the hero for India, claiming three crucial wickets, while Deepak Chahar contributed with two dismissals.
