After the ODIs, Chennai will stage the four-day Test from June 28th to July 1st, followed by a three-match T20I series.

Richa Ghosh’s rapid 34 runs spared India Women from a disappointing total as they reached 147 for six against Australia in the decisive third T20I.
Despite a strong start by Shafali Verma (26) and Smriti Mandhana (29), India faltered, losing four wickets for six runs and reaching 66/4 at the halfway mark. However, Ghosh’s innings revitalized India’s innings, adding 81 runs in the latter half.
