Hosts India start one-off Test with bang, push Aussies on back foot with early wickets

The Indian women’s team started the one-off Test against their Australian counterparts with a bang, as after opting to bat first, the latter lost two wickets within the first three overs, with the score reading 9-2. Once again, India displayed some exceptional fielding with Jemimah Rodrigues effecting an early run out.

She combined with Yastika Bhatia, to remove opener Phoebe Litchfield for a duck. Thereafter, Pooja Vastrakar castled Aussie Elysse Perry for four, to give the team an early advantage.

Dream Start for Team India.

Pooja Vastrakar and bowled dismissals, what a treat to watch.
Last Match – Nat Sciver Brunt
This Match – Ellyse Perry.#INDvAUS
