With two-thirds of the contest played, the India women vs Australia women series will enter its third and final T20 Internationals leg, starting January 5, 2024. As both the teams have won a leg each of the competition - India beat Australia in the one-off Test in early December while Australia romped to a 3-0 win in the One Day Internationals - the victor of the T20I clashes will also lay claim to the series overall. All three T20Is will be played at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai within five days. (RSA Vs IND Men's Test Scorecard | Match Blog)
The India women's national cricket team will aim to bounce back from three disparaging, successive defeats in the ODI leg of the series, each loss more agonising than the last. The latest match between the two sides saw Australia dominate the hosts with both the bat and the ball, eventually rampaging their way to a 190-run victory. The two clashes prior to that, however, were close affairs, with the Women in Blue missing the win by a matter of runs.
India, historically, have fared terribly against Australia in women's T20Is. The two teams have met more than 30 times since 2008, with India yet to hit double digits in terms of wins.
