India Vs Australia: Captain's Thoughts

Harmanpreet Kaur (India Women Captain): "We are going to bat first. Pitch looks good and we look to put a decent score. We have Priya Punia, Harleen Deol and Titas who is making her debut today. It's very similar to Indian weather, very bright. We are used to the conditions. We want to continue the winning momentum from our home series. We just want to enjoy here"

Tahlia McGrath (Australia Women Captain): "Happy. We got Kimmy G and Schutt and they can swing the ball both ways. Pretty excited for Volly. She will open the batting for us. Really looking forward to seeing her. (On the pitch) It's been hard to read with the weather around. We have to adapt to the conditions quickly. It's a beautiful place to play cricket."
