With Australia Women (AUS-W) hosting the recently crowned ODI World Champions, India Women (IND-W), in the first Twenty20 International in a high-stakes multi-format series, the peak of women's cricket is back. This match, which takes place at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground (SCG), sets the tone for a points-based competition that brings the Australian summer to a close.
India comes with tremendous momentum following a historic World Cup campaign and a 5-0 whitewash of Sri Lanka, while Australia is ranked first in the world. This is a titanic battle for fantasy managers, with "Powerplay impact" and clever replacements determining the victor.

Pace bowlers benefit from the pitch at SCG in the early stages of play. Because of the surface's good bounce, added speed, and seam movement, batters find it difficult to smash hard-length deliveries. In the first innings of women's T20 matches at this location, the average score is 150. Batters will relish their time at the crease in the second innings, but spinners will receive little to no help. In the second innings, batting gets easier.
