Australia all-rounder Ellyse Perry reckons the presence of skilful batters in the Indian women’s team will make the pink-ball Test a well-contested affair despite the conditions at Perth being more suited to the hosts.

The historic fixture will be Indian women’s team’s first pink ball game. “It’s an absolutely wonderful venue for a women’s Test. The pitch provides that little bit of extra pace and bounce, the ball carries through really well, there’s a little bit of sideways movement,” Perry was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au.
