Sports updates by Newsparviews: At the Wankhede in Mumbai on Saturday, Australia Women secured the series with a narrow three-run victory in the second ODI and an unassailable 2-0 lead. India Women faltered in the latter stages of the match.
After choosing to bat first, the visitors overcame Deepti Sharma’s five wicket haul to reach 258/8 thanks to opener Phoebe Litchfield’s 63 and Ellyse Perry’s 50.
Richa Ghosh made a heroic 96 in reply, which simplified the situation for India, who needed just 22 from the final 18 balls with four wickets remaining. However, the momentum changed in favour of Australia when bowler Annabel Sutherland (3/47), who had earlier denied Richa a century, removed Pooja Vastrakar in the 48th over.
The hosts finally lost the plot as Sutherland’s over and Ashleigh Gardner’s over allowed India just three runs apiece.
India dropped seven catches early in the game due to carelessness in the field. They were also a little disappointed that Sneh Rana’s bat services were not utilized.
After Rana was hospitalized after colliding with Vastrakar during the game’s 25th over while fielding, Harleen Deol was brought on as a replacement for the player suffering from a concussion.
