The three-match Commonwealth Bank ODI series between the Australian and Indian women’s teams originally scheduled for January 2021 will be postponed until next season, with plans to expand the tour to include an additional three Twenty20 Internationals.
Nick Hockley, CA’s Interim CEO, said the Australian women’s team looked forward to hosting India next season.
“We are very hopeful of delivering an expanded schedule between the Australian and Indian women’s teams for next season, which would be an outstanding result for fans in both countries,” Hockley said.
“We had initially hoped to play India this summer, however the impact of the global pandemic made it necessary to postpone until next season.
“It will be wonderful to once again host the Indian women’s team, who were centre stage for that unforgettable ICC T20 World Cup final at the MCG in March, and to do so with an expanded schedule from what was originally planned.”
Dates and venues will be confirmed in due course.
