Following Smith's dismissal, the Australian team struggled as India's bowling attack, led by Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, and Ravichandran Ashwin, put up a stellar performance. India bowled out Australia for 199, with Jadeja claiming three wickets, and Kuldeep and Jasprit Bumrah taking two each. Mohammed Siraj, Hardik Pandya, and Ashwin chipped in with one wicket each.

In the second inning, Australia had a good start by dismissing Ishan Kishan, Rohit Sharma, and Shreyas Iyer for ducks, leaving India at 2/3. However, Virat Kohli (85 runs from 116 balls) and KL Rahul (97* runs from 115 balls) formed a solid 165-run partnership, leading India to a six-wicket victory over Australia.
