'11 Names Forever Part Of The History Books'

Alongside the team list, BCCI Women shared a message recognising the significance of the occasion and the players who made the first appearance possible.

"11 names forever part of the history books. Turning back the clock to this day 50 years ago as the Indian Women's Team took to the field for the first time in a Test vs West Indies," the board wrote.

The anniversary celebrates more than the passage of five decades. It also recognises the contribution of the women who represented India at the beginning of its Test cricket journey, creating a legacy for generations of players who followed.
