Australia Women's Team vs India Women's Team India Women's Team batting today in the fourth day's match. We saw that Australia women's team took the field against India yesterday and fulfilled the target set by India and gave India a lead of 75 runs. Today India team is going to meet that target and come out on a huge field and already they have lost an important wicket, India Women's batsman Shafali Verma got out early so today's match may be under a bit of pressure. However, they can easily fill the lead provided by Australia women's team because Australia could not give much target. And if Australia women team can perform well against India then India can put pressure on women team, but I think India women team will definitely succeed in meeting their target in today's match.

It was a great team effort by the India Women's team as they secured their maiden Test win against Australia and it was a historic moment for the team. The Indian women's team has won two consecutive Test matches at home, first against England, today against Australia. At the beginning of the day, the Australian women's team managed to score only 28 runs. Vastrakar and Rana put in a really good effort to restrict Australia's batting line-up on crucial wickets and the rest of the bowlers followed suit to finish the innings strongly. Despite falling two wickets short of an easy target of 75 runs, it did not take long for the Indian women's team to secure victory.

It was a home match for India Women's team. So I considered India as favourite. But since Australia is not a weak team. So I thought the Test match would be very competitive. But the match became completely one-sided due to Australia's poor batting in the first innings. Apart from the batsmen, the performance of Australia's bowlers was also very poor. So India women team managed to collect 406 runs in the first innings. As the Australia women's team is very strong, fans' expectations from them are also high. But in this series Australia women's team played very badly against India.

Indian women team performance has gone up significantly and now they are as good a women team of England or Australia. Today they beat Australian women quite comfortably in test and this is proof of how strong Indian women team is now. India now also has women IPL which will further improve there performance. Top bowling from Sneh Rana in both innings, she picked 3 wickets in first innings followed by 4 wickets in second and she rightly deserves to be player of the match.

In this match and in the first innings of Pakistan Muhammad Rizwan played very well but unfortunately, he was injured and that's why the Pakistan team came into trouble, and Saud Shakeel also played well with him, they both made a partnership but some miracle happened and both have been injured, the main player has been injured so we don't have any hope with other players. but thankfully, that match was a tour match and just for 2 days otherwise Pakistan team would have lost this match, and Saud Shakeel also played well with him, they both partnership but some bad luck happened and both were injured.

The second test match between Pakistan and Australia will start on this Tuesday, 26 December in Melbourne. Looking at the current performances and trouble in the Pakistan team, it will be hard for them to win or even draw that test too.

Tour of Australia has never been ideal for the Pakistani team in last two decades because they have never been done their homework before this one of the toughest tour which bring more problems for them with on and off the field issues are also creating mess-up with them just after one match they are already lost their many players due to injuries and I want to blame selectors for this all as they completely fail to manage things before the start of this tour now they are also lost Nouman Ali and Mohammad Nawaz is going to replace him for the remaining two matches of this tour.

Boxing Day test is always very good for the Australia as they mostly have the record number of fans at Melbourne but as we have first test match performance from the Pakistan look like we will be not had too many fans because mostly peoples know what outcome of this match and Pakistan is also in not good shape, so things are surely not ideal for anyone here.

I think we all understand the reality that the match between Pakistan and Australia is going to be one-sided again. Australia is going to win again. I hope that the second match is not going to be one-sided. But whenever the home team gets a chance, they try to have an advantage over the visiting team. And of course, the visiting team cannot do anything about that. So I think the results are not going to change. Probably Pakistan will put up a little more fight, hopefully.

Pakistan cricket board facing many political issue which also have effect on players too.The world cup was not good and many changes ha been made after World cup especially taking Babar azam out from his captaincy and testing new players Shan Masood having not great experience in international matches. Australian team is very strong and hard to defeat in their home team. Pakistani players have to focus on their performance as they are known for unexpected victory and hope that match bring some interest to Pakistani fans.

Pakistan is still considered an unpredictable team and because of that tag, we cannot assume that this test side will be one-sided. They are struggling which is evident in the last match that they played against Australia that does not mean they will struggle again. Afterall Australia is the best test-playing team and every other test-playing nation struggles against them. Given the condition that Pakistan is playing, it would be tough for them to win the next match but I do not want them to surrender like they did in the first match. They have to give Australia a bit of competition in the second match and they might win the match, who knows?

In terms of men's team there are better teams than India like South Africa, Australia but in women's side India is still far ahead.  India's women's team plays very well in both T20I and Test matches. Similarly, in the Test match, they defeated the Australian women's team to win the match by 8 wickets. While India's men's team lost their match against Australia, India's women's team did very well against Australia.  India's women's team continues to maintain India's record of good performances

Wow, that's great news! Congratulations to the Indian Women's cricket team on their impressive victory against Australia. It must have been an exciting match at Wankhede. What were the standout performances or moments from the game that you enjoyed the most?"

"As we look forward to more cricket action, what are your expectations for the upcoming matches in the Australia Women's tour of India? Any particular players you are excited to watch, or predictions for the series?

[Bitcoin_people]

India women's performance was excellent which led to a huge win with Australia women's team by 8 wickets today. Australia women's team had a poor performance from day one due to which they could not collect good runs and lost to India women's team till the last minute. India Women's team had a good run in the first innings due to which Australia Women's team could not meet that target and eventually they lost the Test match. However, the performance of the India women's team was very good and their batting and bowling performance won the Test match. India were not under too much pressure on the fourth day and they easily met the target set by Australia Women and won the Test match.

[Bitcoin Smith]

An excellent morning for Indian W. They took the last 5 wickets way too quickly and gave only 28 runs.

Now they have a chance to create history if they successfully chase down the target of 74 runs, it would be their first test win against Australia. Chase shouldn't be tough even if there is some sort of mini collapse because the target is not big.

As expected the match didn't last very long, and I predicted that AUSW tail will fall too easy in the morning session that is what happened exactly and back to back record by INDW now they will face them in ODI followed by T20 each consists of 3 matches.

Indian Women International test cricket team played very well and they won the match by 8 wickets. Mandhana remained not out at the end of match and  she played very well and made 38 runs in 61 balls.Indian Women team  also  played very well in the first inning of match.Deepti Sharma played good inning and she made 78 runs and played a good role for winning match of Indian team.

As I said in the last post that the Indian women's team is more likely to go into this test match than the Australian women's team but the result has happened. In the second innings, the Indian women's team secured victory against the Australian women's team by keeping 8 wickets in hand. Australia Women showed some hope in the second innings but were bowled out for just 261 runs, setting an easy target for Indian Women. India Women's team may now be gearing up for the ODI series against Australia Women's after pulling off a resounding win against Australia in the only Test match. 
Congratulations to India Women's team for beating Australia Women's team by a huge margin in the only Test match.

2 big tests incoming. Pakistan will look to take revenge in the second test against Australia on their home turf though their chances don't really look good. On the other hand, South Africa and India will kick off their test series.

Truly sucks that all of these teams need to play during the Christmas - New Year week which is the biggest festive week of the year.

India women's team won against Australia in the first and last test match. In this tour they will play a Test and 3-match ODI series and a 3-match T20I series. In the test match Australia lost all wickets for 219 runs in the first innings in contrast to India Women's innings of 406 runs. Which is a much bigger score than Australia. Even in the 2nd innings, Australia could not improve, so India women's team got a great win against Australia. Smriti Mandhana played consistently in both the innings for India Women's team. Jemimah Rodrigues scored 73 and Richa Ghosh also got a 52 runs in the first innings. ‍

Boxing day test match will kick off on 26 Dec and Pakistan bowlers are continuously getting injured. Latest is Noman Ali, who is ruled out of entire test series because of appendicitis and is replaced by Nawaz. There is not much chance of Pakistan winning second test because not there bowlers nor batsmen are in form. The best Pakistan can do in this test series is to avoid a whitewash. This is what happen to you if you dont pay respect to test cricket.

In last few years we are having good improvement in Indian performance in all formats with men and women both are on good improvement and giving their best which is impressive in last few days we have two backs to back test win for them at home which is surely starting of a new era in Indian women cricket and WIPL is already doing good job for the improvement of finances and other which are also important for them hopefully now things will be on positive for them in long run, and we will be able to watch these Indian women to challenge in all formats for the big Australian and English women.

Even still this is just a start but with solid strategy and consistency things can go good and Indians monopoly can increase their hold on these gentlemen's game for many years in the future.

Yes, I also said that this match was heading for the victory of Indian team. But I did not expect it to end today. I expected Australia would push it for a draw by batting for longer but they couldn't and got all out at 261 just setting the target of 75. It took the Indian team 18.4 overs to chase this. They finished it in session 2 of Day 4.

What the Indian team has done is amazing. No one could say they expected India to win against Australia but they did it in a dominating fashion. Australia is a very good test playing nation. Sneh Rana was the Man of the match for this match deservingly. She took 7 wickets in total. They got 3 match ODI series coming up starting from 28th December and I think this would be going the way of India as well.

I don't see any chance of the Pakistan team winning or drawing this match. The Australian team is going to dominate this match like they did in the first match. Before the first match, I thought they only lacked in the bowling side, but they are lacking in every side now it seems. Their batting isn’t good, their fielding isn’t good either. I have lost counts of how many catches they have missed and how many runs they gave for free.

As for the India vs South Africa match, I think it will be a 50-50. The match is in South Africa and South Africa are quite good there. India’s bowling side is quite good, they need to focus on their batting more. South Africa got the advantage in their home soil which puts them in the advantage. This match will be more interesting than the Australia vs Pakistan one.

I don't think that the Pakistan team will win the coming match because of the low performance of the Pakistan team against Australia in the first match. The Pak bowlers are getting down one by one and they are replaced by other players. The test match needs good and fit players because the match goes for two or three days so how does an unfit player show a good performance? After the first match, the Pakistan team failed in all aspects like in fielding bowling, and as well as in bating. I don't know how they played like an emotional guy who did not care about the team but only focused on his performance. The fielders are also not good they are missing catches, in the test matches the only way to end the inning is to bowl all the players so when they miss the catches they will win the match.

[Westinhome]

India women's team won against Australia in the first and last test match. In this tour they will play a Test and 3-match ODI series and a 3-match T20I series. In the test match Australia lost all wickets for 219 runs in the first innings in contrast to India Women's innings of 406 runs. Which is a much bigger score than Australia. Even in the 2nd innings, Australia could not improve, so India women's team got a great win against Australia. Smriti Mandhana played consistently in both the innings for India Women's team. Jemimah Rodrigues scored 73 and Richa Ghosh also got a 52 runs in the first innings. ‍

It was the important question about the winning of the Australian woman team,Because the bowling of the Indian team made the Australia to keep the 219 runs.The second innings of the Australia was end with the 261 runs.But the first innings of the India itself made the 406 runs,So just 75 runs was the essentials on for the winning of the test series.It was easy made by the loss of only two wickets in the score of the second innings of 75 runs to complete the target.This was another shock for the Australian woman team against Indian Women team.
