Creates history: Indian women’s cricket team creates history with first test win against Australia

Indian women’s cricket team has created history with its first Test win against Australia. The Harmanpreet Kaur-led side completed their consecutive wins on home soil by defeating Australia Women by eight wickets at the Wankhede Stadium.
