 In renewed war against Hyderabad, Maratha Peshwa Balaji Rao sent his teenage son Viswas Rao and veteran General Dattaji Sindhi to besiege Sindkhed near Jalna, held by the renegade Ramchandra Jadhav. A relief force under Nizam Ali and Ibrahim Gardi Khan reached Sindkhed, where they were routed in a terrible four-day battle. Nizam Ali sued for peace.
