AUS-W vs IND-W Betting Tips
First Ball of the Match to be a Dot Ball
The first few overs at the Bellerive Oval can be tricky, as the new ball typically offers early movement. Neither team wants to risk losing early wickets, so expect the opening batters to adopt a cautious, low-risk approach to gauge the pitch. In the previous Women’s ODI at this venue, both innings commenced with quiet opening overs, including dot balls on the very first delivery. This is a smart, low-risk bet to keep up your sleeve.
Australia Women NOT to Hit a Boundary in the First Over
The swinging new ball makes aggressive batting difficult in the opening exchanges. The top-order batters will prioritize setting a solid foundation rather than forcing risky boundary options early on. Expect calculated, defensive strokes in the first over as the batters settle in, making this a highly profitable betting angle.

AUS-W vs IND-W Team Previews
Australia Women
As the top-ranked side in women’s cricket, Australia Women entered this home ODI series fully intending to assert their dominance. Despite a minor slip-up during the recent T20I leg of the tour, the home team remains the undisputed gold standard in the 50-over format.
Veteran Alyssa Healy returns to the helm for her final ODI series, and she showed her class immediately, striking a fluent half-century in the series opener. She was superbly supported by Beth Mooney, who anchored the innings with a brilliant 76.
However, Australia’s true strength lies in their elite all-rounders. Players like Ashleigh Gardner and Annabel Sutherland provide unmatched depth with both bat and ball.
The Australian bowling attack was ruthless in the first ODI, completely dismantling the Indian batting order. Every bowler used managed to contribute to the collapse. Ashleigh Gardner was the standout, claiming three crucial wickets, while the ever-reliable Megan Schutt set the tone early with two early breakthroughs.
Darcie Brown, Alana King, Tahlia McGrath, and Sophie Molineux all chipped in with a wicket each, highlighting the relentless pressure the hosts can apply. This comprehensive depth across all departments makes Australia heavy favorites to win the second ODI and wrap up the series.

India Women
India Women’s transition from the T20s back to the 50-over format was rocky, resulting in a disappointing loss in the opening ODI. The visitors produced a disjointed batting performance, crumbling to a sub-par total of 214 all out.
The top order struggled to find any rhythm against the swinging ball. The early dismissals of Pratika Rawal, Shafali Verma, and Jemimah Rodrigues left the middle order with a mountain to climb; the trio managed a combined total of just 12 runs.
Defending a small total against a powerhouse like Australia is a daunting task, and the Indian bowlers failed to rattle the home team’s batting order. Shree Charani was the sole bright spot, taking an impressive 2/41 in her nine overs. Unfortunately, the rest of the attack lacked penetration, failing to take wickets while leaking runs at nearly six per over.
India desperately needs their top order to fire and their bowlers to strike early if they hope to keep the series alive.
India Women Expected Playing 11
Pratika Rawal, Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Deepti Sharma, Richa Ghosh (wk), Kashvee Gautam, Kranti Gaud, Shree Charani, Renuka Singh.
AUS-W vs IND-W Toss Prediction
The captain winning the toss will almost certainly opt to bowl first. Historically, Bellerive Oval strongly favors the chasing team under the lights, as the ball comes onto the bat much nicer in the second innings. In fact, five of the last six Women’s ODIs at this venue have been won by the side batting second.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The pitch at Hobart will offer early assistance to the seamers, with noticeable swing and zip off the deck. However, once the initial movement settles, the surface typically flattens out, allowing batters to score freely. Evening dew often creates a skiddy surface, making batting significantly easier during the second innings. For context, Australia Women posted a massive 308/8 in their previous outing at this venue.
The weather forecast predicts mostly cloudy skies but minimal chance of rain interruptions, with precipitation probability sitting at just 5%.
AUS-W vs IND-W : Who Will Win?
Backing a powerhouse home side on fast, bouncy Australian pitches is the most sensible betting strategy. Australia has evolved into an incredibly settled unit that simply does not lose often on home soil. The Indian squad is still struggling to adapt to the challenging conditions and the longer format, making them clear laggards in this contest.
Bet on Australia Women to win.
