Australia Complete Whitewash Over India in ODI Series

Key Performers

  • Annabel Sutherland: 110 runs, defining performance of the game
  • Ashleigh Gardner: 50 runs, 5-30 in bowling, all-round show
  • Tahlia McGrath: 56*, half-century, ideal foil for Australia
  • Smriti Mandhana: 105 runs, brilliant ton in the chase

Match Summary

Australia sealed a comfortable 83-run win over India in the final ODI of the series, completing the whitewash. The home side's innings was led by Sutherland's sparkling ton, while Gardner's all-round show and McGrath's half-century played the ideal foil. India's decision to bowl seemed a misfire due to the erratic new-ball bowling, and they struggled to come to terms with the Perth surface.

Key Moments

  • Australia slipped from 58/0 to 78/4 in a jiffy, but Sutherland and Gardner rebuilt steadily before changing gears.
  • Arundhati Reddy's 4-26 was the lone star performance for India, while the others struggled to come to terms with the surface.
  • Mandhana's brilliant ton in the chase went in vain as the southpaw found very little support from the other end.
  • Gardner spun a web around India's batters, taking 5-30 and helping Australia complete the win.

Injury Update

  • Georgia Voll suffered an injury on the field and couldn't take the field for the rest of the game.
