AUS-W vs IND-W Team Previews

Australia Women

After a slightly disappointing showing in the T20I leg of the tour, Australia made a brutal statement in the ODIs, emphatically winning both opening matches. With the series in the bag, they will look to maintain their ruthless intensity and carry that winning momentum forward.

Australia’s batting lineup is terrifyingly strong, headlined by the explosive opening pair of Phoebe Litchfield and Alyssa Healy. Litchfield, in particular, has been brilliant, currently standing as the team's leading run-scorer in the series. The middle order is equally formidable; Georgia Voll showcased her immense talent with a spectacular century on Friday, and she is perfectly complemented by the reliable Beth Mooney.

Furthermore, Australia possesses unmatched all-round depth. Players like Ashleigh Gardner, Annabel Sutherland, Tahlia McGrath, and Nicola Carey can all change the game with both bat and ball. Gardner has been the standout bowler thus far, claiming five wickets to lead a spin attack supported by Alana King.

The pace trio of Megan Schutt, Annabel Sutherland, and Darcie Brown is expected to be retained to exploit the early conditions in Hobart.

India Women

Following a morale-boosting T20I series victory, the Indian Women’s team entered the ODI leg brimming with confidence. Unfortunately, they have failed entirely to replicate that success in the longer format, struggling to match Australia's intensity and depth. While the series is lost, India desperately needs to salvage a win to regain momentum ahead of the upcoming Test match.

India’s hopes rest heavily on the opening partnership of Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal. Mandhana has looked in good touch and must play the anchor role, converting her starts into a massive, match-defining score. Captain Harmanpreet Kaur is currently the team’s leading run-scorer, carrying the middle order with consecutive half-centuries. She needs strong support from Richa Ghosh and Jemimah Rodrigues to post a competitive total.

However, India’s primary concern lies in the bowling department. The attack has lacked bite and control. Spinners Deepti Sharma and Shree Charani have managed five wickets between them but have leaked runs at an alarming rate. Pace spearhead Renuka Singh Thakur went wicketless in the previous encounter and must find early swing with the new ball to rattle the Australian top order.

AUS-W vs IND-W Toss Prediction

Bellerive Oval has historically been incredibly kind to chasing teams. Staggeringly, six of the seven WODIs played at this venue have been won by the team batting second. Therefore, the captain winning the toss will almost certainly opt to bowl first.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

The pitch at Hobart is typically well-balanced, offering an even contest between bat and ball. An even covering of green grass usually remains on the surface, meaning the quick bowlers can expect significant movement off the seam and through the air, especially with the new ball.

Batters will need to exercise patience during the initial overs, waiting for loose deliveries before launching their attacks. As the game progresses, the pitch tends to flatten out, becoming significantly easier to bat on.

A first-innings score of around 275 is generally considered par at this ground. The weather forecast predicts cloudy skies with pleasant, cool temperatures, and crucially, no rain is expected.

AUS-W vs IND-W : Who Will Win?

We are confidently backing Australia to win this match and complete the sweep. They have been utterly clinical in all three departments throughout this series, demonstrating why they are the world champions. Conversely, while India has produced a few admirable individual performances—namely from Harmanpreet Kaur—they have consistently failed to click as a cohesive unit.

Against an opponent as ruthless as Australia, those collective failures will likely result in another defeat.

Bet on Australia Women to win.
