- Tourists’ 75-run lead proves indefensible after batting collapse
- Alyssa Healy’s captaincy starts with first Test loss since 2014
Australia’s women have tasted defeat to India in a Test match for the first time, beaten by eight wickets on the last day of their one-off match in Mumbai.
After losing 7-55 to end their second innings, Alyssa Healy’s tourists could only set the hosts a target of 75 at Wankhede Stadium on Sunday. India claimed the victory with relative ease, recovering from the loss of Shafali Verma for four in the first over to chase down the target.
