Australia’s tour of India started on a disappointing note as they lost the four-day One-off Test at the Wankhede Stadium, but they redeemed themselves for the loss by showcasing their prowess in the ODI series. The 50-over series saw Australia completing a 3-0 whitewash over the hosts.
On the other hand, Ellyse Perry and Ashleigh Gardner, two of the most dominating players in the shorter format, will be the ones to watch out for. Phoebe Litchfield had a brilliant outing in the ODI leg of the tour as she notched up half-centuries in the first and second ODIs before getting to the triple-digit mark in the third ODI.
