• World Cup Tune-Up: The upcoming ODIs will be critical practice for both squads for the 2025 Women’s World Cup. India will want to settle their combinations; Australia will want to test their bench strength.

• Players to watch: For Australia, Ellyse Perry and Georgia Voll for batting; Megan Schutt in the bowling department. For India, the likes of Richa Ghosh, Minnu Mani, and their spin-attack could be game changers.
