This highly anticipated encounter comes after Australia-A’s convincing 3-0 clean sweep in the T20 series and a 2-1 dominant victory in the one-day series. India A thrashed Australia A in the last one-day match of the series, unleashing their potential and showed their pure class.
Australia-A skipper Tahlia McGrath won the toss and invited India-A to bat first. Despite a poor start, India-A batted exceptionally and scored 243/9 in 50 overs, where Tejal Hasabnis and Raghvi Bist scored 50 and 53 runs respectively and other batters also contributed to help India-A reach this defendable total. In Australia-A’s innings, Charli Knott and Maddy Darke gave a slow start but got out early to Soppadhandi Yashasri and Priya Mishra respectively. After that, none of the Australia-A batters looked efficient enough to score and got out early against the solid India-A bowling lineup. Priya Mishra displayed an incredible performance with the ball and helped bundle out Australia-A for just 72 runs, helping India-A register an easy win in the last one-day with a huge margin of 171 runs.
Now, everyone has their eye on the one-off unofficial test match, scheduled from 22 August to 25 August 2024.
