India's real big test at the ICC Women's World Cup 2025 will be against reigning champions Australia
Australia have won 10 out of the 13 meetings with India across all ODI World Cup editions
Harmanpreet Kaur and Co. will have to be at their best possible form against the Alyssa Healy led Australian side
Team India's real big test at the ICC Women's World Cup 2025 will be against the reigning champions Australia, who are currently in red-hot form and are blowing away every opponent they are facing in the tournament.
The Alyssa Healy-led Australian team registered statement victories against New Zealand and Pakistan, beating them by 89 and 107 runs respectively. If it wasn't for the rain, Australia would have blown away Sri Lanka as well.
Regardless of it, Australia find themselves in the top-half of the points table and a win against India will take them back to the summit. However, the hosts will not let the 7-time champions get away with ease and will try to do everything possible to get back to winning ways.
