India will look to bounce back at the same venue in Chandigarh in the second ODI of the three-match series against Australia, led by skipper Alyssa Healy, on 17th September 2025 from 1:30 PM IST. The visitors drew first blood in the series with a commanding 8-wicket win in the opening encounter on 14th September and now carry a 1-0 lead into this crucial contest.

With the 13th edition of the ICC Women’s ODI World Cup 2025 less than two weeks away, set to be co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka from 30th September to 2nd November, the series doubles up as vital preparation. Australia will begin their World Cup defence against New Zealand at Indore on 1st October, while Harmanpreet Kaur’s India will launch the tournament in the opener at Guwahati on 30th September against the Chamari Athapaththu-led Sri Lanka, making every ODI before it a chance to fine-tune their combinations against top opposition.
Head-to-Head:
- Total Matches Played – 57
- India Women – 10
- Australia Women – 47
India and Australia share one of the most storied rivalries in women’s cricket, though the numbers underline Australia’s dominance. Across 57 ODI meetings between the two sides, Australia have stamped their authority with 47 wins, while India have managed victories on just 10 occasions. This gulf adds further weight to the ongoing series, as Harmanpreet Kaur’s unit aims to close the gap against the most successful team in women’s cricket history.
