MUMBAI: In the end, Richa Ghosh threw everything at it, but, left with too much to do, just about failed to take India over the line in the fourth T20I at the Brabourne Stadium here on Saturday night.
Walking in the 15th over after skipper Harmanpreet Kaur was out after stroking a superb 46 (30b, 6x4, 1x6), Ghosh, egged on by the deafening cheers of an around 18,000 crowd, nearly helped India nearly pull off a 189-run chase with another sizzling cameo. Dazzling again with her murderous bat, the 19year-old 'pocket dynamite' smashed an unbeaten 40 off just 19 balls in a blitz which included four fours and two sixes to give a mighty scare to the Aussies, who eventually held their never to win the game by seven runs. India finished at an honourable 181 for five, but Australia bagged the series 3-1, with the final game still left to be played on Tuesday.
