Chasing a tough target of 209 runs in the first T20 match (India Vs Australia T20 Series) held at the Punjab Cricket Association Ground in Mohali, Australia needed 55 runs in the last 4 overs. Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who bowled the 17th over, conceded 15 runs.

In the last three balls of the 19th over, Aussie wicketkeeper Matthew Wade hit three consecutive boundaries off the bowling of Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

Bhuvneshwar’s death over bowling failure also had a negative effect on the bowling of another medium pacer, Harshal Patel. Harshal, who gave only 6 runs in the 16th over, conceded 22 runs in the 18th over.
