India's first-choice wicketkeeper-batter Yastika Bhatia is out of the series due to a wrist injury she picked up during the ongoing Women's Big Bash League. In her place, the Harmanpreet Kaur-led team have called up Uma Chetry, who is uncapped in one-day internationals.
WBBL: Harmanpreet Kaur-Sophie Devine's 'Dead-Ball' Controversy Video Goes Viral - WatchOut-of-form opening batter Shafali Verma was dropped, while Harleen Deol marked her return in the 16-member Indian squad that has arrived in Australia. Shafali has been off the boil lately, scoring just 56 runs in three innings against New Zealand and 97 runs in four games at the T20 World Cup. As for Deol, it could be her first international match of 2024, with the 26-year-old having battled a knee complaint for much of the year.
As for the Aussies, Alyssa Healy will not play the series and 21-year-old Georgia Voll has been handed her first international call-up. Healy will miss the series due to a knee injury and her availability for the next series against New Zealand too is unknown. Tahlia McGrath will captain the hosts in Healy's absence, like she did towards the end of the T20 World Cup.
