Australia struck again at a crucial moment, and this time, it was Nathan Ellis who turned the game with a fiery short ball that stunned Axar Patel as India chase 186 runs to win the third T20I of the ongoing five-match T20I series at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart.
Bowling at around 140 km/h, Nathan Ellis sent a sharp delivery aimed right at Axar Patel’s head. The Indian all-rounder tried to pull but was completely rushed by the pace. The ball took the edge of his bat, which twisted in his hands, and ballooned high into the air.
