Bengaluru, Dec. 6: India secured an unassailable 2-0 lead over Australia after the Men in Blue notched up a six-wicket win in the second T20 International at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Sunday.

Lauding the Indian team’s performance, India batsman Rohit Sharma lauded the Virat Kohli-led side for their match-winning show. Rohit is not part of India’s white-ball squad as he continues to recover from his hamstring injury at the National Cricket Academy (NCA).

“What a series win for Team India. Loved the way they played nice and composed. Big thumbs up to each one of them. @BCCI,” tweeted Rohit.

Meanwhile, following Sunday’s win, Team India skipper Virat Kohli said that it was nice to see the young guys and the entire team stepping up to the challenge in the absence of match-winners like Rohit and Jasprit Bumrah.

After the win, Kohli said, “We have played as a team in T20 cricket. The fact that we do not have Rohit and Bumrah, our established white ball players, in and still doing well makes me happy.”

India will now take on the hosts in the third and final T20I on Tuesday at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Following the conclusion of the limited-over series, the highly-anticipated four-match Test series will get underway on December 17th. The Test series will be a part of the World Test Championship.
