India thrashes Australia by 48 runs in 4th T20I to take series lead

In the 4th T20I at Carrara, India posted 167 and bundled out Australia by 48 runs after a game-changing catch by Arshdeep Singh. India now leads the series.

Australia, 06 November 2025 – India started with a steady approach, building early partnerships but losing momentum when wickets fell in the middle overs. At 136 for 6, the innings looked shaky until Akshar Patel stepped in during the final two balls to add ten crucial runs. His late flourish lifted India to 167, a score that suddenly looked competitive given the pitch conditions and the Australian attack.

Australia began the chase with intent and reached 70 for 2, appearing well placed to push India. The turning point arrived with Mitchell Marsh’s wicket. Arshdeep Singh pulled off a sharp catch that broke Australia’s rhythm and opened the door for India. From there the innings fell apart. Bowlers kept a tight grip, removed key batters and never allowed Australia to rebuild. What seemed like a balanced contest shifted quickly as Australia collapsed to 117 all out.

The win pushes India ahead in the series and reinforces their confidence heading into the final match. The bowling unit’s control, paired with the crucial late runs from Akshar Patel, made the difference. Arshdeep’s catch will likely be remembered as the moment that swung the match and put Australia under pressure they couldn’t recover from. The result leaves Australia searching for answers while India looks ready to close the series with momentum firmly on their side.
