Sydney. The Indian men’s team is currently on a tour of Australia. Team India has to play 5 matches in Border Gavaskar Trophy. This series is very important for both India and Australia. Indian women’s team is also going to play a series with Australia. The host team has suffered a huge blow before this series. Australian captain Alyssa Healy has been injured and questions have arisen over her playing in the upcoming series.
The Indian women’s team is going to play an ODI series against Australia at home. Australia captain Alyssa Healy has been ruled out of the remaining matches of the Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) due to a left knee injury. It is doubtful whether he will play in the upcoming ODI series against India. Sydney Sixers said on Saturday that Healy, who is already suffering from a leg injury suffered during the T20 World Cup in October, will not play in the remaining matches of the tournament.
This injury is a major blow for Healy, raising doubts over his availability for Australia’s three-match ODI series against India. This series against the Indian team is going to start just four days after the WBBL final. The Australian captain will undergo tests in the next fortnight and the squad for the India series is expected to be announced late next week.
The first match of the three-match ODI series between India and Australia is to be played in Brisbane on 5 December. After this, on December 8, both the teams will play the second ODI match on the same ground. The last ODI match of the series is to be played in Perth on 11 December.
