The 3rd One-Day international (ODI) between India Women and Australia Women is all set to take place at the Bellerive Oval, Hobart. Australia Women have had a fantastic comeback in the ODI series after losing out on the T20I series earlier this tour. Alyssa Healy, the Australian skipper will be pleased with the way her team has performed as they have left no margin for error so far. They will be confident that they can complete a whitewash against the away side at home in the final game of the series. As Australia Women gear up to take on the Indian Women, here are the top 3 players to look out for:
Ashleigh Gardner
Ashleigh Gardner, the Australian all-rounder, has been one of their best performing all-rounders across the years. In her ODI career, she has picked up 116 wickets from 85 innings at an economy of 4 and she has scored 1678 runs from 64 innings at a strike rate of 111. She has been truly a game changer for her national side. She has picked up 5 wickets and scored 24 runs in this series. She picked up 2 wickets and gave away just 39 runs from her 10 overs in the game. She will be a key player for the Australian Women in the final game of the series.
Phoebe Litchfield
Phoebe Litchfield, the Australian top-order batter, has been a consistent run-getter for her national side. In her ODI career, she has scored 1399 runs from 37 innings at a strike rate of 90. She has been able to give Australia starts in the early stages of the game and has been one of their best batters. She has scored 112 runs from 2 innings in this series. She scored a solid 80 in her previous match against the India Women. She will be hopeful that she can end the series on a high note with the bat.
Georgia Voll
Georgia Voll, the Australian top-order, has been in fine touch in recent times especially with her performance in the WPL. In her ODI career, she has scored 399 runs from 9 innings at a strike rate of 110. She hasn’t had much experience in the international setting, but she is making sure that she utilizes every opportunity presented to her. She was out for a duck in the opening game of the series, but she bounced back with a sensational century in the previous game against the India Women. She will be an integral part of their batting unit, and she will be looking forward to contributing more with the bat.
