Preview:
Australia Women and India Women will lock horns with each other for the third ODI on Sunday, September 26. The hosts exuded their dominance in the first match and secured a victory by nine wickets. However, India had almost pulled a win in the second ODI but a no-ball drama and splendid innings by Australia’s Beth Mooney sealed the deal for the hosts.

Beth Mooney played a belligerent knock of unbeaten 125 and sailed her team to victory. Heading into this match, India will be keen to avoid whitewash by winning the match.
