India Women Preview 

India Women batted pretty well, with the top three scoring a half-century each. But it was their bowling and catching that let them down. Harmanpreet and her team will be looking to work on these errors and come up strong.

• Key Batter: Pratika Rawal and Smriti Mandhana had a fifty each and will be ones to watch out for.
• Captaincy: Harmanpreet has immense captaincy experience, but she had to find the right bowling combination, which will be a challenge.
• Batting Strength: India have strong batting, and there are players in form. They will be confident for another good show with the bat.
• Bowling Attack: Bowling will be a big worry for the hosts. They only took two wickets in the first game. The pitch and quality of opposition batters are other aspects which didn’t let Indian bowlers settle.

Australia Women Preview 

It was another walk in the park for Australia. Despite having a 280+ total, they were too clinical in the chase. They would be happy and very confident about this game as well. A series win will help them head into the Women’s World Cup with confidence.

• Batting: Australia Women have probably the strongest batting unit in the world. Tahila McGrath is batting at no. 8, and that’s what you can expect from this batting unit. Most of the players are also in good form.
• Bowling: Bowling looked slightly off-color. The pitch was flat as well. But Australia still have a better bowling unit than India.
