The World No 1 T20I batter was dismissed on the first delivery in each of the three ODIs at Mumbai, Visakhapatnam and Chennai.
In Mumbai and Visakhapatnam, he was trapped leg before by Mitchell Starc. In Chennai, he was castled by Ashton Agar.
After batting at number four for the first two matches, SKY was demoted in the batting order for the third ODI.
