India and Australia are clashing against each other in the third and final match of the three-match ODI series on Wednesday, March 22 at the M Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Despite the fact that the chasing team had won the first two games, skipper Steve Smith asked Rohit Sharma's team to bowl first after winning the toss. Meanwhile, just after India’s team hurdle, former Indian skipper Virat Kohli was seen jumping with joy.
The star cricketer was also seen dancing on the field before the match started. Kohli performed on various Bollywood songs including the popular dance move from the Salman Khan-starrer movie ‘Hud Hud Dabbang’. However, it wasn’t enough as he then demonstrated his excitement for the decider by jumping enormously once the hurdle was ended. A picture of that went viral on the internet.

The 34-year-old batter failed to provide anything to the team in the first two matches. But, after getting out cheaply in the first two games of the series, Kohli, who recently reached his 28th Test century, will be aiming for a huge score with the bat in the series finale. His form will be very crucial for the Indian team in the upcoming World Cup as well.
Brilliant bowling performance by Hardik Pandya
Meanwhile, batting first in the 3rd ODI, Australian openers Travis Head and Mithcell Starc started from where they left in the second ODI as they stitched a quick 68-run stand for the first wicket. However, India’s star allrounder Hardik Pandya brought back the Indian team into the match by taking 3 wickets at regular intervals of time.
Hardik was bowling with brilliant accuracy and consistency and he got rewarded as he dismissed Head first, who survived a dropped chance earlier in the over by Shubman Gill before getting Australian captain Steve Smith out for a duck and taking his wicket for the second time in the series.
After that, Hardik got rid of dangerous-looking Marsh in the 15th over as he was unsure while pushing a good length delivery tentatively and only managed a thick inside edge which crashed into the stumps. After that, it was Kuldeep Yadav's show as he trapped David Warner and Marnus Labuschagne in the middle overs.
