Australia Leads India in First Women’s ODI

Australia opened the innings with a dominant over, taking a 1‑0 lead in the first over of the historic women’s ODI against India.

Australia’s opening over at Allan Border Field saw a strong delivery from Schutt, who swung the ball and left India’s opener, Verma, struggling to hit a straight drive. The over ended 0‑1 in Australia’s favour, giving the hosts an early advantage in the match’s first day.
