An awesome display of hitting by Ash Gardner and Grace Harris secured Australia a 4-1 series win in the T20 international series in India
“I loved watching Ash and Grace today. We pride ourselves on fearless cricket, like to take the game on and stay ahead,” said Australia’s stand-in captain Tahlia McGrath.“I think it’s easy batting with someone like Grace, who has the power game to back up the chat,” said Gardner, adding: “I’m just enjoying my cricket more than anything else, reaping the benefits on the field.”
Their onslaught put the game beyond an Indian team who lost world ranked No 3 batter Smriti Mandhana for four in the first over after which wickets tumbled regularly. Harleen Deol got going but she was run out by McGrath. That gave Graham remarkable figures of four wickets for eight runs off two overs including a hat-trick taken off the last two balls of the 12th over and the first of the 19th.
