Indian women’s team skipper Mithali Raj is both curious and excited ahead of the pink-ball Test experience in the first-ever women’s day-night Test against Australia starting in Carrara today. However, India will again miss experienced all-rounder Harmanpreet Kaur as she has been ruled out of the game due to a thumb injury.
In their first Test after a gap of seven years, the Indian women’s team managed a draw against England at Bristol last June. India’s most experienced pacer Jhulan Goswami had just one wicket from 21 overs against England, while off-spinners Sneh Rana and Deepti Sharma claimed four and three wickets respectively.
The Indian eves, who lost the three-ODI series 1-2 last week, had their first net session with the pink ball on Tuesday.
