Preview:

India A Women had a tough loss to start off the 3-match T20 series against the Australia A Women. The home team registered a huge 9-wicket win in the first game. India Women got only 112/9 even that was possible only due to Nuzhat Praween’s 44-ball 43 while batting at No.7. Despite losing Tahlia McGrath early on, Elyse Villani’s 36-ball 62 and Sammy Jo-Johnson’s 24-ball 48 scored runs at a quick pace. The duo added an unbeaten 68-run stand for the 2nd wicket in only six overs. Their contributions helped Australia A to chase down the target with 53 balls to spare.

Pitch Condition/Report:

The Bill Pippen Oval produced yet another low-scoring Women’s T20 match. Similar scores were recorded here in 2014 when Pakistan toured Australia. However, Australia A Women showed how good a track it was scoring at nearly 10 runs an over. If they bat first, we could see them touching 160-run mark as the pitch seems to be two-paced in the first half.
