IND vs AUS 3rd ODI: India captain Rohit Sharma had a see-saw of emotions after Kuldeep Yadav convinced him to go for a DRS review during the ongoing third ODI against Australia at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.

It all happened in the last ball of the 39th over when Kuldeep Yadav was bowling to Ashton Agar, and the googly from the chinaman hit Agar’s front pad after beating the inside edge.

While Kuldeep’s appeal was turned down, he asked his skipper to go for a review, but replays revealed that the impact was outside off.

As a result, India lost a review. Rohit was also seen having a chat with Virat Kohli after which he looked at Kuldeep showing his disappointment.

The spinner then walked away towards the boundary ropes hanging his head down in disappointment.

Meanwhile, leg spinner Adam Zampa picked 4-45 as Australia beat India by 21 runs in the series-deciding one-day international on Wednesday to claim the No. 1 spot in the ICC’s ODI rankings.

Mitchell Marsh’s 47 runs and Alex Carey’s 38 runs had carried Australia to a par score of 269 runs (49 overs). In reply, India was bowled out for 248 runs (49.1 overs) with Virat Kohli’s half-century going in vain.

The visitors won the series 2-1 after dropping the first match. Marsh was named player of the series for scoring 194 runs in three innings.
