Earlier in the day, Kohli won the toss and opted to chase again. Finch replaced Stoinis in the XI and opened with Wade. But he was dismissed for nought as he tried to attack Washington Sundar. Smith joined Wade and Wade started attacking the Indian bowlers. He belted the bowlers all around the park. Smith wasn’t finding his timing and eventually departed in the the 10th over. Maxwell joined forces with Wade and found regular boundaries. Chahal dismissed Maxwell of the no-ball. This changed the whole complexion of the innings as Maxwell started to take on the bowlers. Both Wade and Maxwell brought up their fifties. Wade was dismissed for 80 in the 19th over. The Indian fielders failed to take catches and eventually the hosts ended their innings on 186/5. Sundar was good with the ball picking 2 wickets. Natarajan too had a good game picking one wicket.

Mitchell Swepson is Man of the match for his match winning figures of 3/23 in his four.

Mitchell Swepson: "It was obviously really nice to get some wickets through the middle there. It was nice to have an impact and a good way to finish on a win like that. You want to challenge yourself against the best and these guys have proven they are the best T20 side in the world at the moment. A great challenge and I loved every minute of it out there."

Aaron Finch | Australia captain: It was a great series, and we just happened to be on the wrong end of the first two. It's the first time we've had two leg-spinners in the side, and they were bold with the short boundaries here, so credit to both of them. Swepson bowled the 7th over against Shikhar and Virat, both destructive in their own ways, but Zamps bowled really well as well. We played some great white-ball cricket over the last 18 months and really proud of the bunch.

Virat Kohli | India captain: At one stage when Hardik started going we thought we could pull it off. The middle over phase during our batting cost us the game. A partnership of 30-odd would've madde it easier for Hardik. We are finding ways to come back and give the opposition a scare and the series win is a little asterisk for us to finish the 2020 season on a high. I feel the crowd was a factor as well, it's always giving you a dimension of motivation. Our crowd pulls us through sometimes, and Australia's too, and we as players feed off the crowd's energy. We need to take the same competitive attitude into the Tests, and having played here a few times, we can score runs as well. Once it's time to capitalize and score, we need to do that session by session. I'm sure the current side is stronger than last time (Test matches) and I'll see if I can play the tour match.

Hardik Pandya is the Player of the Series.

Hardik Pandya | Man of the Series: I'm very pleased, and wouldn't mind getting the award, but it was a team effort. After the 2nd ODI we thought we'd make this a 4-match series and we managed to get three wins, so happy with that. I don't mind giving interviews because. I haven't seen my child for four months, so I'd like to spend some time with family.

We have witnessed everything in this series- sixes, wickets, sensational catches, dropped catches. Now the action shifts to the longest format which is the most awaited series this year. It was lovely to bring you the updates of this match. Tata from me, Akshay Bhide, and my colleagues AryaSekhar Chakraborty and Kingshuk Kusari. Bye Bye.

AUS won by 12 runs
