The event has become a significant part of Cricket Australia&#8217;s home calender, and its partnership with the McGrath Foundation, supporting people affected by breast cancer. The India vs Australia women&#8217;s ODI series, which is serving as preparation for the Women&#8217;s World Cup that starts from September 30 in Guwahati, is currently locked at 1-1, with the match at Delhi set to be a mouth-watering decider . In the first two WODIs, played at the PCA Mullanpur Stadium in New Chandigarh, Australia won the opener before India levelled matters. Smiti Mandhana&#8217;s 77-ball century, the fastest-ever for India against Australia, helped India stage a fightback to win by 102 runs. This was the heaviest defeat ever for Australia in a WODI.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"India will wear pink jersey during the third ODI against Australia women.
