Australia A women defeated India A 3-0 in the T20 series, as the hosts proved to be much better than the visitors, who lacked the batting firepower and consistency to be at the same level.
While Australia A will start as favourites in the 50-over games due to the addition of Tahlia McGrath to their squad, it is Alyssa Healy who has been batting like a dream. This series was crucial for her return to international cricket, and she is making the most out of it.
However, India A will be under serious pressure as they attempt to field an 11 that would challenge the Australian side. The likes of Shafali Verma would also hope for an international comeback on the back of some runs in this series.
