In a captivating encounter at Brisbane’s Allan Border Field, Australia clinched victory over India in the 1st ODI, showcasing their dominance in the 50-over format. After being invited to bowl first, first after winning the toss, Australia, led by Megan Schutt‘s stellar bowling performance (5/19), skittled India out for just 100 runs in 34.2 overs. India, struggling with consistent dismissals, never quite managed to find their footing after a promising start that fizzled into an all-too-familiar collapse. With their target set at 101, Australia chased down the total with ease, despite some early jitters, e and 202 balls left in the bank.

Megan Schutt’s five-wicket haul demolishes India

Schutt’s exceptional bowling performance was the highlight of the match, as she tore through India’s lineup, claiming figures of 5/19. Her disciplined, probing lengths and variations left the Indian batters in disarray, unable to form any substantial partnerships. Schutt’s mastery not only derailed India’s batting plans but also set the tone for the rest of the Australian bowling unit, which complemented her performance with precision and efficiency.

India’s innings were marred by a series of batting failures, especially in the middle order. After a shaky start, where India failed to laid foundation with early fall of Smriti Mandhana and Priya Punia,and Harleen Deol provided some resistance however their departures triggered a dramatic collapse. Despite a brief resistance from lower-order batters, the team fa൲iled to build on their initial momentum, succumbing to pressure and losing crucial wickets at ꧙regular intervals. The lack of stability and partnerships left them with a modest total that was always going to be difficult to defend.

Phoebe Litchfield set the tempo with a rapid 35 off 29 balls, displaying confidence and precision. Even as key players like Ellyse Perry and Beth Mooney were dismissed, the experienced lineup adjusted their strategy effectively. Georgia Voll‘s unbeaten 46 was a testament to her calm under pressure, guiding her team to victory with a measured innings. The Australians’ seamless approach and depth in batting underscored their supremacy and set a high standard for the series ahead.

She has been in remarkable form of late, but crazy to think it's her first five-fa.

Haven't seen a performance this timid from the Indian women's team in a long time. This was very poor. Started right from their team composition. Was very brave of them to play just seven batters.

Aussies looki🐼ng right back on 🍨it. India have absolutely no answer to it.
Megan Schutt 5/19 👊🙌

There's something amusing about seeing Megan Schutt get wickets with the bouncer. Schutter has 3-fa and it just feels inevitable that she's going to get wickets in ODIs.
Great bowling performance from so far. 💚💛

Another day, another defeat for India in international cricket. Australia thrashed India in the first Women's ODI. India was bowled out for 100, and Australia's Georgia Voll scored an unbeaten 46 as a tribute to India's 46 all-out. 😂
