After suffering a defeat in the first T20I, India made a strong comeback to beat Australia in a rain-hit second T20I at the VCA Stadium in Nagpur on Friday.
Chasing a target of 91 in eight overs, captain Rohit Sharma steered India closer to the target, remaining unbeaten on 46 off 20 balls.
With nine runs needed off the final over, Dinesh Karthik hit a six and a boundary off consecutive deliveries to take India to a series-levelling win, ahead of the final game in Hyderabad on Sunday.
Since making his comeback in the Indian side earlier this year, Karthik has been mainly given the role of a finisher and the veteran wicketkeeper-batter hasn't disappointed the management.
