India Women (IND-W) vs Australia Women (AUS-W) 2nd T20I Live Cricket Score Updates: Harmanpreet Kaur’s India will aim to build on their positive start to the series and eye a rare T20I series victory over Australia when they face each other in the second game at the Manuka Oval in Canberra today.

Rain played spoilsport but ultimately favoured India in the opening T20I against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Chasing a modest target of 134, India came out firing and reached 50/1 in just 5.1 overs before a heavy downpour halted play with the visitors way ahead of the par score at 29. Australia were bowled out for 133 in 18 overs, with Reddy’s four-for complemented by Renuka Singh Thakur, Sree Charani and Deepti Sharma

On Sunday at the iconic Sydney Cricket Ground, Arundhati Reddy was India’s star in the first T20I, picking up four wickets – one in each over she bowled – as Australia were bowled out in a home women’s T20I for only the second time in history. Incidentally, the last time Reddy played in Australia, she had picked up a superb 4-wicket haul at another iconic venue Down Under. In the only ODI she played on that tour, she ran through Australia’s top order in one spell, taking the first four wickets to fall between overs 11 and 17. It didn’t help India win that day, but it was her career-best ODI figures – just as the 4/22 in Sydney is now in T20Is. READ MORE
