India Wins a Thriller, Beating Australia By 4 Wickets

Captain Dhoni and opener Gautam Gambhir take India to a thrilling victory against host Australia in the fourth one-dayer in the ongoing tri-series in Adelaide on Sunday.

India successfully chases down the Aussie target of 270 with 2 balls to go, beating by four wickets.

Gautam Gambhir adjourned the Man of the Match for scoring scintillating 92. Dhoni scored important 44.

Rohit Sharma made 33 and Suresh Raina contributed with 38 runs.

Earlier in the day, Australia won the toss and elected to bat first. David Hussey made 72 and Forrest scored 66. Australia ended up scoring 269 in the 50 over.

Sachin Tendulkar was given rest in this match.

This win will surely give Team India much necessary confidence as their performances have been very poor on this tour.
