Australia A Women secured a convincing 8-wicket win against India A Women in the 2nd match of the India A Women tour of Australia at Brisbane on August 9, 2024.
Chasing a target of 131, Australia A comfortably reached 133/2 in 18.2 overs, led by a brilliant unbeaten 53 from opener Tahlia Wilson. Captain Tahlia McGrath contributed a solid 47* off 38 balls, sealing the victory with 10 balls to spare.
Earlier, India A Women struggled to build momentum, finishing at 130/9 in their 20 overs. Priya Punia top-scored with 29 off 26 balls, but regular wickets hindered their progress. Grace Parsons was the pick of the bowlers for Australia A, claiming 4 wickets for 30 runs, while Nicola Hancock took 3 wickets for just 14 runs.
Despite early breakthroughs by India A, Australia A's strong batting lineup proved too resilient. Meghna Singh and captain Minnu Mani managed to pick up a wicket each, but the total was insufficient to challenge the Australian side, who now lead the series with a dominant performance.
