Four Uncapped Players Picked for Australia ODIs

In a move to bolster their squad, the India Women's team has introduced four uncapped players for the upcoming ODI series against Australia. Shreyanka Patil, Titas Sadhu, and Saika Ishaque, who recently made their T20I debut, have all been selected for the ODI squad. Additionally, 20-year-old Mannat Kashya has earned her place in the 50-over squad and will continue to be part of the T20Is as well.

The return of Richa Ghosh and Renuka Thakur adds depth to the team, as they missed the previous ODI assignment against Bangladesh. The selectors have made several changes from the squad that played in July, omitting Priya Punia, Devika Vaidya, Meghna Singh, Monica Patel, Uma Chetry, Anjali Sarvani, Rashi Kanojiya, and Bareddy Anusha.

Despite losing the recent T20I series 2-1 to England, the T20I squad remains unchanged. India's Women's team has showcased remarkable performances, clinching victories against both England and Australia in one-off Tests.
