    WOMEN’S TWENTY20 FRIDAY JANUARY 29, 2016 INTERNATIONAL ACT HEET AUSTRALIA V INDIA F S LIBRARY Australia v India in Women’s T20 International Matches The first women’s Twenty20 International (T20I) match was played in 2004, at Hove in England, between England and New Zealand and was won by the visiting team. It preceded the first men’s T20I by six months. Having won its inaugural T20I the following year, against England at Taunton, Australia won its initial T20I series in 2009 when it defeated New Zealand 2-1. The first ICC women’s T20I World Cup was held in England in 2009, Australia losing to England in a semi-final. The host nation went on to win the tournament. Subsequently the Australians have a perfect record – winning tournaments in the West Indies (2010), Sri Lanka (2012) and Bangladesh (2014). Today’s match is the eleventh T20I to be played between Australia and India. The first encounter between the two countries in Australia was at Sydney in the 2008/09 season and the most recent was in Adelaide three days ago. They have also met five times in India and three at neutral venues, two of which were during women’s T20 World Cups. Summary results are shown below. Women’s T20 Internationals between Australia and India At Hurstville Oval, Sydney, October 28, 2008: AUSTRALIA 4/142 (20 overs) (S Nitschke 49, KL Rolton 44*; G Sultana 2/30 defeated INDIA 4/140 (20 overs) (MD Raj 51*, SM Naik 32) by two runs.
