Great Barrier Reef Arena: Sianna Ginger claimed 4-16 as Australia A edged India A by four runs to complete a 3-0 T20 series clean sweep at the Great Barrier Reef Arena in Mackay on Sunday.

Just a day after India A received a 114-run drubbing in the second T20, the visitors put in a much-improved showing with the ball to restrict Australia A to 144/8, with Prema Rawat and Radha Yadav taking three-fers each.

Opener Shafali Verma set the tone for the chase through a brisk 41 off 25 balls, laced with six fours and a maximum. But Sianna, the 20-year-old all-rounder from Queensland Ginger, turned the contest in favour of Australia A by removing Shafali in the eighth over before having Raghvi Bist stumped in the 15th over.
