Many Gains For India In Twin Women's Tests Wins -- Hope They Get More Soon
DY Patil Stadium: A resilient Indian women's cricket team fought back both with the bat and ball to snatch the initiative back every time the World's top team tried to wrest back control as they recorded a historic first-ever Test win against the mighty Australia on Sunday.
There were four situations in which it looked like the Indians would lose the script and hand over the advantage to the Australians, But on all these occasions, the Indians fought back, snatched back the advantage and eventually scripted an eight-wicket victory.
The Indians took the Test by the scruff on the first day itself as they bundled out Australia for 219. Their first Test at home against Australia in four decades could have gone the other way if the Indians had made a poor start in their first innings. But thanks to some aggressive batting by openers Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana, the hosts raced to 98/1 at stumps on the first day, thus pushing the Aussies on the back foot.
