While the Women’s outfit is put to the test, so is the Men’s counterpart; touring India in a four-Test series against one of their fiercest rival. The action is also broadcasting live on Kayo.
It has gone terribly so far, losing the opening two matches, ruling out any hope of winning back the Border-Gavaskar trophy and ending the 19-year tour Indian series drought.
The tour began in Nagpur in what is expected to be a series of twists and turns; the Aussies are looking to end a 19-year Indian series drought.
