Katie Mack batted the entire innings to score an unbeaten 83 off 60 balls and helped Australia A Women beat India A Women by 30 runs in New Chandigarh and seal the unofficial T20 series 2-0 with a game to play.
Mack anchored Australia A's innings after they were sent in, striking 11 fours in her stay as the visitors posted 178 for 2. She added 75 for the opening wicket with Rachel Trenaman, who made 37 off 25, before Charli Knott chipped in with 26 off 20. Anika Learoyd provided the late acceleration with an unbeaten 24 off 16, including two sixes. Niki Prasad was the pick of the India A bowlers, taking 2 for 41
India A faded quickly with the bat, none of their top-six batters able to score more than Minnu Mani's 16 off 25. Prasad gave the team hope coming in at No. 7 and striking an unbeaten 54 off 31, but there was just too much ground lost. India A had been reduced to 54 for 5 before Prasad and Mani's 53-run stand. Tanuja Kanwar made 16 off 12 before falling in the final over, leaving India A on 148 for 7 at the end of their innings.
For Australia A, Milly Illingworth claimed 2 for 13 from her three overs while Frankie Nicklin also took two wickets.
