By IANS News December 14, 2023 • 09:30 AM View: 1445

DY Patil Stadium: India Women captain Harmanpreet Kaur won the toss and elected to bat first in the four-day one-off Test against Enlgnad Women at the DY Patil Stadium here on Thursday.

With the teams clashing in a Test match for the first time after 2021, there is a lot of interest centred on this match, which is also the first Test being hosted by India since a one-off Test against South Africa at Mysore in 2014. This is the first Test between India and England in India since 2005.

India handed debuts to batter Jemimah Rodrigues, pacer Renuka Thakur and allrounder Shubha Satheesh.
