India Women are set to host Australia Women for a three-match ODI series from December 28, 2023 to January 2, 2024, at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
India Women recently secured their historic first-ever Test triumph against Australia since 1977, emerging victorious by eight wickets.
India amassed a total of 406 runs in their first innings, with notable contributions from Deepti Sharma (78) and Smriti Mandhana (74), despite the challenges posed by Australia's Ashleigh Gardner, who claimed four wickets for 100 runs.
The Indian bowlers, spearheaded by Pooja Vastrakar's four wickets for 53 runs and Sneh Rana's three wickets for 56 runs, restricted Australia to 219 in their first innings.
In the second innings, India chased down the target with a composed 75 for 2, led by Mandhana's unbeaten 38. This secured the historic win over Australia, who managed scores of 261 in their second innings, with Tahlia McGrath top-scoring with 73 and Rana once again making a significant impact with four wickets for 63 runs.
Looking ahead, the India Women's ODI team, under the captaincy of Harmanpreet Kaur and vice-captain Smriti Mandhana, features key players like Deepti Sharma, Pooja Vastrakar, and Sneh Rana. Exciting prospects Shreyanka Patil, Saiqa Ishaque, Mannat Kashyap, and Titas Sadhu are poised to make their ODI debuts.
Australia Women, captained by Alyssa Healy and vice-captain Tahlia McGrath, boast a formidable lineup including Ellyse Perry, Ashleigh Gardner, and Jess Jonassen.
After the ODI series, a three-match T20I series is scheduled at the D.Y. Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai from January 5-9, 2024.
