India Women vs Australia Women Team Preview & Squads
India Women
Harmanpreet Kaur’s leadership has matured beautifully through the World Cup, aggressive when required, calm under pressure. Her instinctive field placements and trust in all-rounders like Deepti Sharma and Sneh Rana have shaped India’s balance.
IND top order, led by Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, and Jemimah Rodrigues, has been in sensational touch. The middle order—featuring Harmanpreet and Richa Ghosh—adds both power and stability, making India one of the most rounded batting units in the tournament. Even Deepti Sharma and Amanjot Kaur’s lower-order cameos have turned games around.
The IND bowling attack is built around discipline and adaptability. Renuka Singh’s new-ball swing and Sneh Rana’s accuracy through the middle overs have given India a solid foundation. Radha Yadav and Deepti Sharma offer spin control, ensuring India remains a threat on turning tracks.
In their last game, India Women defeated New Zealand Women by 53 runs (DLS method) at Navi Mumbai. Batting first, they posted a mammoth 340/3 in 49 overs, led by Mandhana’s fluent century. The bowlers then held their nerve as New Zealand managed 271/8 in 44 overs chasing a DLS target of 325.

IND-W vs AUS-W Outfield Report
Dr DY Patil Sports Academy, Navi Mumbai
The Navi Mumbai pitch has generally favored batters early on, but with a hint of turn as the game progresses. The bounce remains true, making stroke play enjoyable, though spinners could play a vital role in the second innings. Teams winning the toss might prefer to bat first and post a challenging total above 270.
The weather forecast for October 30 predicts clear skies with bright sunshine and a maximum temperature of around 33°C. Humidity levels will hover near 60%, which could test the bowlers’ endurance, especially during long spells. The conditions are ideal for a full, uninterrupted contest.
Historically, Navi Mumbai has produced first-innings scores between 250 and 320, depending on batting application. Chasing under lights tends to get tricky with the ball gripping slightly, so a total above 280 might prove to be match-winning. Low scores under 200 have rarely been defended here.
