IND-W vs AUS-W Live Cricket Score, India vs Australia Women 2nd ODI Today Match
India Women (IND-W) vs Australia Women (AUS-W) 2nd ODI Live Cricket Score Updates: Following a humbling 6-wicket loss in the first ODI, world champions India will look to regroup and bounce back when they take on Australia in the second women’s ODI at the Bellerive Oval (Ninja Stadium) in Hobart on Friday.
After taking a 2-1 lead in the T20I leg of the multi-format series, with wins in the first and third T20Is, India could not keep the momentum going at the start of the One-Dayers, losing the first game which was dominated by the hosts from the word go. The Women in Blue’s decision to bat first backfired on a bouncy pitch when they were bundled out for just 214 in 48.3 overs, with only skipper Harmanpreet Kaur (53), vice-captain Smriti Mandhana (58), and Kashvee Gautam (43) providing some resistance.

In reply, Australia rode on fifties from skipper Alyssa Healy and Beth Mooney before Annabel Sutherland’s brisk 48 helped the hosts seal the game in just 38.2 overs. Sree Charani was the lone silver lining as far as India’s bowling was concerned. She picked two wickets while her economy stayed below five, whereas the rest of the attack were toothless against Healy’s side. (Read more about the first ODI between IND-W and AUS-W)

“Happy days,” said Alyssa Healy at the toss, and she meant every word. When Harmanpreet Kaur — chuckling at her own unbroken run of luck with the coin — called it right and opted to bat first, Australia’s captain barely concealed her delight. At Allan Border Field, a ground they know intimately and have never lost at in women’s ODIs, Healy’s side wanted to bowl first anyway. They made full use of it.
By the time the winning runs were hit, Australia had extended their record at the Brisbane venue to 21-0, overhauling India’s 214 with six wickets and 70 balls to spare. It was a controlled, clinical performance — from the first over to the last — that served as a sharp reminder that, whatever India’s T20I series win a few days ago might have suggested, Australia remain the benchmark in women’s ODIs at home.
