Australia Has Really Good Spin Attack, Prepare Spinning Wickets At Your Peril, Says Alyssa Healy Ahead Of Test V India
DY Patil Stadium: Shortly after being appointed as Australia’s new all-format skipper, Alyssa Healy said the visitors’ have a really good spin attack and has warned India over preparing a spinning pitch for the upcoming one-off Test match to be held from December 21-24 at the Wankhede Stadium.
The four-day Test match at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai will be the first Test Australia women’s team will be playing in India since 1984. With the men’s team playing this year’s Border-Gavaskar Trophy in India on spinning wickets, the expectation is there for the trend to follow suit for the one-off women’s Test match.
Australia are carrying four spinners in off-spin all-rounder Ashleigh Gardner, veteran left-arm spinner Jess Jonassen and leg-spinners Alan King and Georgia Wareham. Ashleigh had claimed figures of 12-165 during this year’s Women’s Ashes Test at Trent Bridge, which is also the second-best bowling figures in women’s Test history.
