India 64/0 in 9 overs 

 

Lass ball?

[Sandz]

IW sitting pretty with a lead of 157 and counting. 
 

A sound thrashing of Aus women coming up. Stay tuned.

[rollingstoned]

187 run lead at the beginning of the third day. Good partnership between vastrakar and Deepti to get us there. 

[Sandz]

Aus 2 wickets down and only 76 behind, they won’t go down easily

Been a good test this, only the Aussie women would have made India bat again here on this pitch. 

[cowboysfan]

need similar wickets for England Tests,no need for raging turners.

[cowboysfan]

hold onto your hats,our ladies are not great finsihers to say the least.

[Gollum]

Premature but still, great job done by the ladies. And 2 fantastic pitches.

Exactly, this is not a done deal yet, lots of playing and missing going on. Could have been 2 down for 4 runs 

[Sandz]

Historic Victory by 8 wickets 

 

First one against Australia 

[speed_thrills]

Man, women cricket is so painful to watch. Not bothering with this again.

[Sandz]

Some stats:

 

India’s first win against Australia in 11 attempts 

 

Australia’s first loss in this format since January 2014

Last time Aus women toured India for a test match was 1984, I’m guessing this is going to change from here on

This is a dead format...  Even Eng & Aus don't play it more often. 

Pak NZ SA SL don't even bother about it. 

Only ODI/T20 matter in Women cricket

yep ball takes forever to arrive and batters still miss it

[rollingstoned]

This was the same pitch where we beat Nzl and lost 10 wickets in an innings against Ajaz after we failed to get the job done in that dead Kanpur pitch. Ball zips through when it is bowled at 90+ kph. Both this and the dy patil surface against England were good. 

[Sandz]

This is way more exciting than the men’s, no 9 smashing Aussies.

[nitinbwj]

Aus won comfortably chasing 280 odd.
