India women were comfortably placed at 132/1 when rain brought an early end to the opening day’s play on the historic pink-ball Test against Australia women in Carrara in Gold Coast, Queensland on Thursday. Smriti Mandhana was batting on a sublime 80 and Punam Raut was unbeaten on 16 when stumps were called on Day 1. India were 101/1 at the dinner break on the opening day of their one-off Day/Night Test, after which lightning delayed the start of play for a while. The last time India and Australia engaged in a women's Test match was fifteen years ago. The one-off Test will be India's first day-night Test. This is a new-look Indian women's Test team. Only two members of the 2006 Test team are in the current squad. They are skipper Mithali Raj and veteran pacer Jhulan Goswami. This will be the second Test match for the Indian women's cricket team this year. Earlier this year in June, India settled for a hard-earned draw against England women in Bristol after being forced to follow-on. Opener Shafali Verma stood out in her first Test match with scores of 96 and 63. Smriti Mandhana scored 78 in the first innings but Mithali Raj, the mainstay of the middle-order, failed in both innings. With the third AUS vs IND ODI held on Sunday and the following day being a rest day, Indian women have got only two practice sessions in the lead up to the landmark Test. The visitors lost 2-1 in the ODI series. A lot of focus will be on Ellyse Perry. She has a fabulous Test record with scores of 213*, 116 and 76* in her last three Test innings.
