Meanwhile, former India players and fans had slammed the selectors for giving a chance to Harshit, highlighting his bond with head coach Gautam Gambhir.
Harshit Rana gave a befitting reply to his trolls by taking four wickets in the third and final ODI against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. His effort with the ball helped India restrict the rivals to a score of 236 in 46.4 overs. The right-arm pacer was spot on from the start and conceded just 39 runs from his 8.4 overs as the hosts failed to play the full quota of 50 overs.
Alex Carey (24), Cooper Connolly (23), Mitchell Owen (1) and Josh Hazlewood (0) were sent back by Rana. Washington Sundar dismissed two batters while Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel picked up one wicket each.
For Australia, Matt Renshaw amassed 56 runs off 58 balls, with the help of two boundaries. Captain Mitchell Marsh accumulated 41 runs off 50 balls, with the help of 5 boundaries and 1 six. Travis Head was looking dangerous, but Mohammed Siraj ended his innings. He managed 29 runs off 25 balls, hitting 6 fours.
