Usman Khawaja’s century helped Australia to a one-day international series-clinching victory win over India in Delhi. Australia, who had lost the opening two games of the five-match series, claimed a memorable 3-2 comeback win as India fell 35 runs short of the visitors’ 272 for nine. Opening batsman Khawaja has enjoyed a superb series and followed scores of 50, 38, 104 and 91 by making 100 from 106 balls. Rohit Sharma made 56 at the top of the order in reply, but India lost wickets at regular intervals and leg-spinner Adam Zampa was the pick of the Australia bowlers with three for 46. India captain Virat Kohli was one of four victims for Australia wicket-keeper Alex Carey when he was caught behind for 20.
