IND-W vs AUS-W 3rd ODI Pitch Report & Weather Update – Arun Jaitley Stadium, Australia Women's Tour of India 2025

IND-W vs AUS-W 3rd ODI Pitch Report & Weather Update: India Women will face Australia Women in the 3rd match of the Australia Women’s Tour of India 2025 at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, on 20 September 2025, at 1:30 PM IST.

After India’s historic win in New Chandigarh, which ended an 18-year wait for a home ODI victory against Australia, the series is now tied at 1-1. Both sides will be determined to clinch the decider, with India aiming for their maiden Women’s ODI series win over Australia.

The pitch and weather conditions are expected to play a vital role in this crucial encounter.


Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch Report – IND-W vs AUS-W

The surface at Arun Jaitley Stadium is known to be a batting-friendly pitch that generally produces high-scoring matches. Batters will enjoy the true bounce and quick outfield, especially in the early stages of the game.

However, as the innings progress, spinners can come into play, particularly during the middle overs when the ball grips the surface. Pacers with the new ball can extract some swing under Delhi’s dry conditions, but the margin for error is very small.

  • Batting Conditions: High-scoring surface; par score around 260–280 in ODIs.

  • Pace Bowling: New-ball bowlers may find swing early; slower variations will be useful later.

  • Spin Bowling: Minimal turn on offer; spinners will rely on tight lines to contain runs.

  • First Innings Average Score: 238 in ODIs at this venue.

Toss Prediction – IND-W vs AUS-W

The toss could prove decisive. Teams batting first have often enjoyed success here, and with the pressure of a series decider, both captains may prefer to put runs on the board.

Toss Prediction: Win the toss and bat first.
