The first ODI of the three-match series in between Australia women And India women is scheduled to be played at Allan Border Field in Brisbane.
The hosts Australia last played an ODI more than eight months ago. Although they are unable to compete in the 50-over format, most of their players stay in touch by participating in national competitions.
On the other hand, India got a win at home against New Zealand Women. They go into the series with a relatively inexperienced squad.
Since crucial points in the women's championship are at stake, the series will be extremely exciting. Both sides would be eager to win it.

Likely top performers
Probably best batter: Beth Mooney
The southpaw may not have played an ODI since March, but she played in enough white-ball games with the Perth Scorchers Women in the recently concluded Women's Big Bash League to showcase her fine form.
Probably best bowler: Ashleigh Gardner
The same goes for Gardner with regards to her ODI outings. However, she only went wicketless twice in her last 10 WBBL games in 2024. Expect her to continue her form with the ball.
