India will kick off their Commonwealth Games (CWG) 2022 campaign against Australia on Friday (July 29) at the Edgbaston Cricket Ground in Birmingham. Both teams are placed in Group A alongside Pakistan and Barbados. Both teams will hope to start their campaign on a winning note as they aim for the prestigious gold medal.

India are fresh from a win against Sri Lanka. Led by the dynamic Harmanpreet Kaur, this side boast some serious talents in Shafali Verma and Pooja Vastrakar among many. Smriti Mandhana, vice-captain, will have to do the bulk of the scoring with the bat at the top. The Women in Blue will have to fire in unison to beat a top side like Australia.

The Aussies, on other hand, are one of the heavyweights going into CWG 2022. Led by Meg Lanning, Australia have some serious match-winners in their ranks, who can turn the head of the game single-handedly. Wicketkeeper-batter Alyssa Healy prefers playing against India and will look to continue her dream run.
