India have managed to win the 3rd T20I match of the four match series. After posting a formidable total on the board, the Indian bowlers put in a brilliant effort to take an unassailable lead in the series.

Notably, Aiden Markram won the third straight toss of the series and put India to bat. The visitors did not have the ideal start as they lost Sanju Samson early in the innings. However, the two young Indian batter, Tilak Varma and Abhishek Sharma decided to play counter attacking cricket and bailed the team out of the situation.

Abhishek Sharma And Tilak Varma Helped India To A Massive Total

Abhishek Sharma played a dazzling knock and scored a 25-ball half century before getting dismissed. However, Tilak Varma continued even after that. He remained their till the end of the innings and scored 107 runs off 56 deliveries. The effort by Varma took India to a massive total of 219/6 at the end of their 20 overs.

In the chase, South Africa lost Ryan Rickelton in the third over and received a shock at the very beginning. After this India kept on chipping away with the wickets and soon the target was looking beyong South Africa's reach. However, Henirich Klaasen and David Miller got together at 84/4 in the 10th over and started bringing the home team back into the game.

The Ghosts Of T20 WC 2024 Final Comes Back To Haunt Miller

Heinrich Klaasen played the role of the aggressor and decimated the Indian bowling helping South Africa crawl back. Soon, David Miller, who was struggling to get going decided to join the party. He slammed a huge six of the fourt ball in the 16th over and tried to follow it up with another the next ball.

It was a short ball and Miller pulled it hard towards the deep mid-wicket region. The ball was flying away over the stands, but Axar Patel timed his jump to perfection and took a brilliant catch. This catch might have brought back some nightmare for Miler from the T20 World Cup 2024 final. It was Hardik Pandya's bowling that he was caught in the deep during the final and that led to their losing out on the title.
