India A Takes Control in Women's Unofficial Test

On the first day of the four-day one-off women's 'unofficial' Test, India A dominated Australia A, dismissing them for just 212 runs, largely thanks to spinners Minnu Mani (5/58) and Priya Mishra (4/58). The Australian batting lineup struggled against the Indian spin attack, continuing a trend from their previous ODI encounter. Opener Georgia Voll scored 71 runs but fell to left-arm spinner Mannat Kashyap, contributing to Australia A's collapse to 94/4. In response, India A reached 100/2 at stumps, with Shweta Sehrawat (40 not out) and Tejal Hasabnis (31 not out) forming a crucial partnership after an early loss. The match showcases India's strong performance in spin bowling and sets the stage for potential success in the following days.
