IND W Vs AUS W, 3rd T20I: India W opt to bat first against Australia W in series decider

Adelaide [Australia], February 21 (ANI): India women's captain Harmanpreet Kaur won the toss and decided to bat first in the third and final T20I match of the ongoing bilateral series at the Adelaide Oval in Australia on Saturday.
India won the first T20I match in Sydney by 21 runs with the help of the DLS method, but lost the second match in Canberra by 19 runs. Now, the winner of this match will claim the series before the ODI series starts on Tuesday.
Both teams made one change in the playing XI as India brought in Shreyanka Patil, replacing Kranti Gaud, and Grace Harris replaced Nicola Carey in the Australian playing XI.
After the toss, Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur said, "We'll bat first. Wicket looks very nice, hopefully we set a decent total on the board. We are batting first, let's enjoy this game. In batting, we should work on our partnerships, and that can really help us. The bowlers have been doing a really good job, and hopefully, today, they will also come up with a good positive mindset. We have one change: Kranti Goud isn't playing today. In place of her, Shreyanka Patil is playing."
Australian captain Sophie Molineux said, "We were looking to bowl. I loved how our bowlers operated. Carey's out for Grace Harris. (Captaincy) Loving it. It's been great, it's been so far."
Australian all-rounder Ellyse Perry is playing her 350th international match for Australia. On her achievement, Molineux said, "It's hard to put into words. What she's done for this team and this game, it is hard to put into words."
