India seemingly can't escape drama surrounding the DRS system but this time they have little reason to complain, with in-form opener Rohit Sharma the beneficiary of an umpiring howler at the Gabba.
The tourists set Australia a chase of 308 in the second of five ODIs as Sharma struck back-to-back centuries helped by his close call on 89, when he looked as if he clearly nicked a ball off the bowling of Joel Paris.
The ball travelled safely into the hands of Matthew Wade and at 2-170, it looked as if Australia had made a breakthrough after toiling away with some largely uninspiring medium pace. 
But umpire Mick Martell was unmoved and just days after Indian captain MS Dhoni suggested there was some sort of conspiracy in place as a result of their stance against the DRS system, fortune favoured their blades.
Sharma would go on to pour further pain on the Australias as he surged to 124, the highest total by any Indian in a one-day international at the Gabba.
His innings would once again be at the heart of a formidable total that looked like it could have been much higher if not for a late meltdown, some good luck for Australia and some tidy bowling towards the death.
Sharma relishes playing Australia and would have been rubbing his hands together as Dhoni won the toss and elected to bat on a pitch that looked made for runs, as was the case in Perth.
He went on to find the boundary 11 times and clear the fence three times but can thank his lucky stars after his close call in the 31st over. It was a lucky break for India, flying in the face of captain MS Dhoni's controversial view. Dhoni made the call after Australia's George Bailey (112) should have been caught behind first ball in Perth but was incorrectly given not out.
India's total ensured Australia must set a new ODI run chase record at the Gabba to win.
Australia hold the record after reeling in England's 8-300 in   January 2014 to win by one wicket.
Australia eclipsed India's 3-309 in the first ODI in Perth with four balls to spare. Sharma's luck finally ran out in the 43rd over. He was run out at the non-striker's end after bowler James Faulkner got a hand to a straight drive by Ajinkya Rahane (89 off 80 balls). Sharma's knock was the equal fourth highest ODI score at the Gabba.
Sharma shared a 121-run third wicket stand with Rahane after a 125-run second wicket partnership with Virat Kohli (59). Kohli was spectacularly run out by Kane Richardson from fine leg.
Paris (1-40 off eight overs) notched his maiden ODI scalp when he had Shikhar Dhawan (six) caught behind in the third over. Scott Boland (1-64) also nabbed his first ODI wicket when he had Dhoni (11) caught slogging to long-on. Paris and Faulkner (2-64) were the pick of the bowlers.
India's innings concluded under dark clouds but rain did not intervene.
