India Women vs Australia Women Preview:

India Women( IND-W ) is set to face Australia Women( AUS-W ) in their 13th match during the ICC Womens World Cup 2025. This match is scheduled to take place at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium on Sunday, October 13.

India Women’s World Cup campaign has been a mixed bag so far. They started with wins over Sri Lanka and Pakistan, but despite the results, their batting lacked fluency. A clinical South African side then handed them a reality check, exposing several weaknesses.

The biggest concern has been the misfiring top and middle order. Smriti Mandhana, who came into the tournament in great form, has struggled to find her rhythm — managing only 54 runs in three innings. The likes of Pratika Rawal, Harleen Deol, Harmanpreet Kaur, and Jemimah Rodrigues have also been inconsistent, leading to early collapses in almost every game.

Thankfully, the lower order has stepped up. Richa Ghosh has been India’s standout performer, scoring 131 runs in three matches — including a brilliant 94 off 77 balls against South Africa. Sneh Rana has also chipped in with useful cameos, helping India post fighting totals.

For India to go deep in the tournament, their top order must fire — especially Smriti and Jemimah — with tougher opponents like Australia ahead.

On the bowling front, things have looked more promising. Young pacer Kranti Gaud has been impressive, picking up six wickets in three matches while maintaining an economy of 4.28. Spinners Sneh Rana and Deepti Sharma have been reliable in the middle overs, combining for 13 wickets so far. However, the rest of the attack has struggled for consistency and could face another stern test against Australia’s strong batting lineup.

Australia Women, meanwhile, have been in dominant form. They crushed New Zealand by 89 runs and followed it up with a 107-run win over Pakistan. Their only hiccup came in the rain-affected game against Sri Lanka, but they remain comfortably on top of the table and full of confidence.

Their batting has been rock-solid — from Alyssa Healy and Phoebe Litchfield at the top to Ellyse Perry and Beth Mooney in the middle. Mooney was brilliant against Pakistan, scoring a match-saving 109 off 114 balls after Australia stumbled to 76 for 7.

In the lower order, Grace Harris and Ashleigh Gardner bring explosive power. Gardner, in particular, showcased her brilliance against New Zealand with a stunning 115 off just 83 deliveries.

Australia’s bowling attack has been equally sharp. Kim Garth and Megan Schutt have led well with the new ball, while Alana King, Georgia Wareham, and Annabel Sutherland provide control and variety through the middle overs. Each of them has the knack for breaking partnerships and keeping the pressure on.

IND-W vs AUS-W Pitch Report:

The pitch at Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam, is known for offering a good balance between bat and ball, though it tends to favor batters slightly early in the innings. The surface is generally flat with true bounce, allowing stroke-makers to play their shots freely during the first half of the match. However, as the game progresses, the pitch tends to slow down, bringing spinners into play and making run-scoring more challenging. Fast bowlers get minimal assistance after the new ball and must rely on variations and accuracy. The average first-innings score here usually hovers around 240–280, and while batting first has often proven advantageous, evening matches can see dew influence proceedings, helping the chasing side. Overall, this is a venue where batters can dominate early, but spinners control the middle overs, making the toss and match conditions crucial.

IND-W vs AUS-W Weather Report:

At 3:00 PM local time on October 12, the weather at Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam is expected to be warm and humid, with temperatures hovering around 31°C. The sky will likely be partly to mostly cloudy, with a moderate chance of light showers or passing drizzle — typical for the coastal region during October. Humidity levels will remain high, making conditions feel warmer than the actual reading. A gentle sea breeze of around 10–20 km/h should provide some relief for players and spectators. Overall, it should be a playable afternoon, though brief rain interruptions cannot be ruled out.

Expected Scores:

1st Innings Predicted Score: 250–270 runs

2nd Innings Predicted Score: 230–250 runs

Key Notes:

Pitch: The Visakhapatnam surface generally offers a balanced contest — good for batting early on, but slows down as the game progresses. Spinners are likely to get more assistance in the middle overs.

Conditions: Warm and humid afternoon (around 31°C) with partly cloudy skies; slight chance of light showers, but major interruptions are unlikely.

Batting Impact: Top-order batters may find it easier early on with the new ball coming nicely onto the bat. However, timing could get tougher in the later stages of the innings.

Bowling Impact: Spinners and slower bowlers should come into play in the second half, especially if the pitch grips. Dew in the evening could make defending totals challenging.

Overall: A total around 260+ should be competitive, with the toss winner likely opting to bat first to avoid chasing under humid, possibly dewy conditions.
