The electrifying game was played at the iconic Wankhede Stadium of Mumbai, and had a number of public figures in attendance at the venue apart from star cricketers featuring in the summit clash of the series.

Owner of Reliance Industries Limited, Mukesh Ambani, was also present in the stands, and he chose a perfect day to watch a game of cricket, as Abhishek Sharma put up a brilliant show with the bat. Sharma reached his hundred off just 37 balls, becoming the second-fastest centurion for India in T20 internationals.
