India vs Australia: Series Decider in Adelaide
21 Feb
Summary
- India and Australia face off in the crucial third T20I to decide the series.
- India seeks its first bilateral series victory in Australia across all formats.
- Australian bowlers aim to replicate their strong performance from the previous match.
India and Australia are set for a thrilling series decider in the third and final women's T20I in Adelaide this Saturday. The current series stands tied at 1-1, heightening the stakes for both teams.
Historically, the Indian women's team has not yet achieved a bilateral series win against Australia across any format. This match presents a significant opportunity to break that record. In the second T20I, despite promising starts from Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma, India faltered in their chase of 164.
The Australian bowling unit, featuring Kim Garth, Annabel Sutherland, and Sophie Molineux, proved dominant, dismantling India's middle order by taking five wickets for a mere seven runs. India's pacers, including Renuka Singh, Arundhati Reddy, Kranti Goud, and Amanjot Kaur, will need to find their rhythm and precision against Australia's strong batting lineup.
Australia's batting order sees Georgia Voll stepping into the opening role, following the retirement of Meg Lanning, alongside Alyssa Healy.
