Australia Women and India Women will be playing the one-off day-night test after the ODI series at WACA Ground in Perth, and the match is all set to start from March 06, 2026. This will be the last match of the ongoing multi-format series between Australia Women and India Women. It’s going to be an interesting test match between both teams, but Australia is likely to dominate, seeing the past stats & records.

Australia Women won the three-match ODI series against India Women by 3-0. They played completely dominating cricket against the visitors. However, India had earlier won the three-match T20I series by 2-1, but Australia bounced back strongly in the ODIs and showed a different brand of cricket.

Australia Women star player and captain Alyssa Healy will be playing her last international match, and it will be an emotional game but both teams have plenty of quality players, therefore it’s going to be a good contest. India Women haven’t won a single test match in Australia, but this time, they will be looking to take the lead.

WACA Ground Pitch Report:

WACA Ground in Perth is known for its fast and bouncy surface, which generally favours fast bowlers. Pacers are going to get extra bounce and since it's a day-night test match, we might see little swing as well. Batters need to play good cricket, especially against the short-ball to score good runs at this venue.

Spinners will come into action after day 2, else it’s going to be a batter vs pacers battle at WACA Ground in Perth. The toss-winning team is likely to bat first at this venue and put some runs on the board, as batting at night against the pink ball would be quite tough & challenging.
