Sloppy fielding was a massive letdown for India in the 3rd ODI. While both sides dropped catches India’s fielders were among the worst which is where the game turned. The series is now out of hand and looking at how the fielding has been the next game too does not look very promising.

IND-W vs AUS-W Key Players

Renuka Singh

Renuka Singh is a pretty talented bowler who has broken apart top orders in the past. Consistency though has been an issue resulting in her being moved in and out of the side. With another chance in ODI Cricket, she will be waiting to prove that she is here to stay.

Jess Jonassen

Spin is going to play a huge part at Mumbai and the Australian spinners have a task on hand. She has watched a lot of Ravindra Jadeja in the lead-up to the game, and could look to match his accuracy, and if she does so successfully that would be a dangerous prospect for the Indian batters to face.

IND-W vs AUS-W Match Tips

Red-ball Cricket and White-ball Cricket are different challenges. While India won the Test, beating Australia in ODIs may not be as straightforward given the line-up ahead of them.
