The three-match T20I series between Australia Women and India Women has been very competitive, and both teams have thrown punches at each other. At SCG, India Women proved to be too good for the hosts. Arundhati Reddy and Renuka Thakur were brilliant with the ball. In the second game, Georgia Voll and Beth Mooney added 128 runs for the opening wickets and put India under pressure.
That opening stand didn’t let India come into the game. Though the Indian bowlers fought well in the death overs, Australia produced enough runs for India. Harmanpreet Kaur and co. need contributions from their middle-order batters to fight. The series decider will be live from Adelaide Oval on February 21 (Saturday) with a scheduled start of 1:45 PM IST. Australia will not hold the grip, and they will come hard. For India, it is important to catch the chances thrown at them.

AUS-W vs IND-W: Players to Watch out for
India Women: Shafali Verma is the most impactful player for India. She has had good starts in both games but failed to get going. If she gets set, she will take India to a good position.
Australia Women: Georgia Voll is one of the most dangerous white-ball openers who can hit the ball long, and she showed that in the last game. Voll is in red-hot form and has the most runs in this series.
Australia Women vs India Women Today’s Match Prediction: The final game is expected to be closer. Both sides have shown some areas to work on. Australia Women have had better contributions with the bat, which is lacking for India. For the visitors, both openers have good starts, but there is nothing else after that for that.
The Indian bowlers have been exceptional, especially Arundhati Reddy. There is not much difference between these two in terms of bowling unit. The toss will be a factor because of the rain predicted for this game. But Australia will start this game as favorites because the conditions are on their side.
