Why This Squad Matters
Ten of the 15 players were part of Australia’s 2022 World Cup-winning team, providing a strong base. while newcomers Phoebe Litchfield, Georgia Voll, and Kim Garth add energy. Sophie Molineux and Georgia Wareham return to strengthen the squad after missing the last edition.
Playing in India and Sri Lanka
Conditions in India and Sri Lanka will be spin-friendly, which makes the inclusion of spinners like Alana King, Sophie Molineux, and Georgia Wareham especially important. Australia also has reliable all-rounders — Ellyse Perry, Ashleigh Gardner, and Tahlia McGrath — to balance the side.
