After a convincing 347-run win over England, the Indian women's cricket team is ready to lock horns with Australia in a one-off Test to be played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai starting Thursday, December 21. The Test match is going to be historic as Alyssa Healy will be leading an Australian women's team in a Test match on Indian soil for the first time since February 1984.
Australia have only played one Test series in India thus far. Their 1983/84 tour had four Test matches and all of them resulted in a draw. Shantha Rangaswamy led India whereas Jill Kennare captained Australia during the four-match Test series in 1983/84.
Notably, India are high on confidence after their win over England and that will most likely reflect on the field at Wankhede, whereas Healy and her teammates look ready for any challenge that lies ahead of them.
