India A Women bounced back after a tough T20 series sweep by pulling off a clinical four-wicket victory in the opening One-Day in Mohali.
Chasing 236, the hosts found themselves under early pressure after slipping to 46 for 3, but the ship was steadied by a match-defining 126-run partnership between Tejal Hasabnis and Anushka Sharma. Hasabnis set the pace with an aggressive 82-ball 81, laced with six maximums, while Sharma provided calm support with a fluent 55 before Niki Prasad’s unbeaten 32 ensured the home team got across the line.
Earlier, India’s bowling effort kept Australia A to 235, breaking a dangerous 81-run opening stand between Tahlia Wilson and Rachel Trenaman thanks to three-wicket spells from both Vaishnavi Sharma and Prasad.
