Australia's temporary skipper, Tahlia McGrath, won the toss and elected to bat first against India in their Group A match of the Women's T20 World Cup on Sunday. The Indian squad made a strategic adjustment by re-introducing seamer Pooja Vastrakar, replacing Sajeevan Sajana.
However, India's plans were disrupted just before play, when Asha Sobhana sustained an injury during warm-ups, necessitating a last-minute adjustment. Radha Yadav stepped into the Playing XI in Sobhana's stead, as confirmed by a BCCI statement.
Alyssa Healy of Australia is also out due to injury. A win in this contest is crucial for India, who are currently second in the points table, to enhance their semifinal prospects.
