Just when it looked like the series would rest in India’s favour, up stepped Peter Handscomb to play an innings that shall be remembered for years to come.

Handscomb combined exquisitely with Usman Khawaja, as the two brought their side back in the hunt.

Handscomb’s innings of 117 earned him many a praise as his valuable knock helped Australia chase down the might total of 259 and remain alive in the series.

Handscomb ended the series as the 3rd highest run scorer with 236 runs, only behind Khawaja and Virat Kohli. The future looks exciting for cricket Australia and Peter Handscomb!
