India Women vs Australia Women, 3rd T20I: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast and Live Streaming Details

India and Australia will square off in the final T20I of the three-match series on Tuesday, January 9, at the Dr DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. After India took a 1-0 lead, Australia won the second game to level the series/he two sides will now fight for ultimate glory in the decider.

India bagged a massive nine-wicket victory in the first game to take an early lead and move closer to the series win. A brilliant show with the ball by Titas Sadhu (4/17), followed by a record 137-run opening stand between openers Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma, helped India bag a win.

The Women in Blue could not replicate a similar performance in the second T20I and ended up losing the game. After being put to bat first, they could manage to compile only 130 runs in their allotted 20 overs. Combined efforts from Georgia Wareham (2), Annabel Sutherland (2), Kim Garth (2) and Ashleigh Gardner (1) helped Australia set themselves an easy target.

Openers Alyssa Healy and Beth Mooney started well with the bat and shared a 51-run partnership before the former was dismissed. India bounced back in the game after dismissing Beth Mooney and Tahlia McGrath, who had been finding boundaries at regular intervals.

Though the Indian side managed to restrict the Australian side in the middle overs, a couple of bad overs towards the end led to Ellyse Perry making the most of the available conditions. The all-rounder notched up an unbeaten 21-ball 34 and finished the game off with a magnificent six, thereby helping her side level the series in her milestone 300th international game.
