Get a detailed prediction of Australia Women’s Playing XI for their first ODI: Australia are without some of their key players as they get ready to host India for a 3-match ODI series. Alyssa Healy is one of the huge names who is missing from the series after suffering an injury. Some of the well-established stars from the home team are set to play against India with huge points on the line.
The home team has a wealth of riches in their talent and this has seen some good performers from the WBBL 2024 campaign being included. One of the biggest players that the visitors will have to watch out for is star player Elyse Perry.
Here is the likely Australia Women’s Playing XI vs India
Top order
21-year-old Georgia Voli is expected to make her ODI debut after impressing with the bat during the WBBL seasons over the last few years. Batting with her will be veteran star Phoebe Litchfield who has played a lot against Indian players not only at the international level but also in franchise cricket.
Middle Order
The Australian middle order consists of players who can excel with both the bat and also the ball. Ellyse Perry has been the best all-rounder in the world for a long time and most of the Indian stars know what she can do when in form. Tahlia McGrath and Ashleigh Gardner are coming into the series on the back of their amazing season in the WBBL season.
Lower-order
Beth Mooney can bat anywhere in the batting order and can change the course of the game. Mooney has been one of the best players for Australia over the last few years. Annabel Sutherland and Kim Garth are dangerous with the ball and can hurt the Indian team and can also contain runs in the middle overs.
Tail enders
Megan Schutt was the bowler to watch out for during the recently concluded WBBL 2024. Schutt was picking wickets at regular intervals for her side and doing the damage with the new ball. Darcie Brown has been called up after her amazing WBBL 2024 showing, Alana King will be expected to spearhead the spin attack and the leg-spinner has been a constant thorn in India’s flesh.
