BRISBANE, Australia, Nov 8, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - India claimed a 2-1 win in the five-match T20 series against Australia after the final match was abandoned due to rain after just 4.5 overs in Brisbane on Saturday.

After losing the toss and being sent in to bat, India's openers Abhishek Sharma (23) and Shubman Gill (29) took the score to 52 for no loss before a thunderstorm forced the players from the field.

Heavy rain persisted and umpires eventually decided no further play was possible.

It was the second match of the series to be ruined by rain following a washout in Canberra on October 29.
