BCCI announce Indian Women’s squads for ODIs and T20Is against Australia; four uncapped players named in ODI squad

Indian women will play 3 ODIs in Mumbai and 3 T20Is against Australia.

BCCI, on Monday, December 25, 2023, announced India Women’s squads for the upcoming three-match ODI and 3-match T20I series against Australia at home. India have already registered a historic first-ever test win over Australia at Wankhede Stadium.

They will face Australia in three ODIs, on December 28, December 30, and January 2 (all at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium), before the three T20Is will be played in Navi Mumbai on January 5, 7, and 9.

For the three T20Is against Australia early next month, India named an unchanged squad from the one that lost 2-1 to England at home earlier this month.

However, four uncapped players received maiden India call-ups for ODI series as selectors revamped the 50-over team, from the one which played against Bangladesh some time back.
