Sneha Rana get nod from ICC

Meanwhile, Pooja Vastrakar has been ruled out due to upper respiratory tract infection. Sneha Rana, an right-arm off break bowler, has been approved as her replacement by the ICC.

Harman and Vastrakar are two key players in the Indian set-up and hence, their availability against a dominant team like Australia is important.

Mandhana will lead team India

If Harmanpreet does not get featured in the playing XI then, the star opener batter Smriti Mandhana will lead the team against Australia.

On the other side, Australia will look up to retain their title while having an upper hand against India, especially in World Cup matches where the Kangaroos were up with 3-2.

Australia has also won the T20 series in India by 4-1. In the warm-up match of T20 World Cup, Australia defeated India.
