IND W V AUS W: Harmanpreet's Twin Strikes Help India Reduce Australia To 233/5
Captain Harmanpreet Kaur: Captain Harmanpreet Kaur claimed two crucial wickets, bowling in a Test at home after nine years after Tahila McGrath struck a defiant second half-century of the match as Australia led by 46 runs with five wickets remaining, leaving on knife's edge the one-off Test of the series at the Wankhede Stadium.
Australia rode on a brilliant 73 by McGrath and her 84-run partnership for the third wicket with Ellyse Perry (45) and a 66-run stand with skipper Alyssa Healy (32) as they wiped out India's lead of 187.
Harmanpreet, who has the third-best match figures of 9-85 against South Africa in 2014, brought herself into the attack and sent back McGrath off the fifth ball of her first over and then a few overs later, got Healy to reduce Australia to 221/5.
