India Women will face Australia Women in the final ODI of the series tomorrow at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. After a tough first match, India bounced back strongly in the second ODI with a fantastic century from Smriti Mandhana and some sharp bowling from Kranti Goud that kept Australia’s runs under control. Now, playing in front of their home crowd, India will be eager to win the series and carry that confidence into the World Cup. Here, let’s break down for INDW vs AUSW match prediction with recap of the last two matches and analysis:
1st ODI: Australia Women beat India Women by 8 Wickets
In the first match of the series on September 14 at Allan Border Field in Brisbane, Australia Women won comfortably by 8 wickets. India set a solid total of 281 for 7, thanks to good knocks from Pratika Rawal, who scored 64 off 96 balls, and Smriti Mandhana, who made 58 off 63. But Australia’s chase was powered by Phoebe Litchfield’s aggressive 88 off 80 balls, along with Beth Mooney’s steady unbeaten 77 off 74. Australia finished the chase in 44.1 overs, helped by a few missed chances as India dropped four catches during the innings.
2nd ODI: India Women’s Level Series with Historic Win
In the second ODI on September 17 at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, India Women made a strong comeback to level the series with a commanding 102-run victory.
