PREVIEW

Having secured a stunning T20I series triumph, reigning world champion India will have the psychological edge when it takes on Australia in the first ODI of a three-match series.

India had beaten Australia in the Women’s ODI World Cup 2025 semifinal in Navi Mumbai, and the host would be looking to avenge that stunning defeat.

What makes the series even more significant is the fact that one of Australia’s greatest players, Alyssa Healy, will be making her swansong ODI appearance in this rubber. She will be ending her illustrious career after the one-off Test against India starting on March 6 in Perth.
