The Australian Women’s team, which won the last T20 Women’s World Cup, is ready to play cricket once again.

This ODI series will be important for both teams ahead of the 50-over World Cup in New Zealand in February 2021.

 

Both Australia Women’s and New Zealand have already qualified for the tournament.
