That brings an end to our coverage for this game. Australia Women draw first blood in the three-match ODI series. Keep joining us for more cricketing action all around the globe. For now, this is Akshay Bhide, signing off, on behalf of my co-commentators Deepak Prakash and Sidharth Gulati and scorer Dushyant Madhukar Kumar. Tata. Bye Bye.
Phoebe Litchfield (Player of the Match): "This was one was pretty special to bat with Ellyse. It was special.
Just tried to back my game. I hit some down the ground after I struggled at the start. Lots of ebbs and flows throughout the game but I decided to back myself.
As I said, lots of ebbs and flows. The partnership was enjoyable but we loved when both got to fifties.
Played pretty well to be fair. Got some seamers to move the ball. The ball is spinning less than I expected but still challenging conditions.
Working in the game a bit better. Scoring off most balls and maybe not get dismissed is what I'm trying to do."

Alyssa Healy (Australia Women Captain): "Sometimes you just got to get out of the way and let the good players have a day out. But, yeah, great night for us. Obviously, great to start off the one-day series with the win, but still lots to play for.
I mean, they came in quite late in the game, but I think we could probably just tidy up our back ten overs. I thought the way that we were tracking with the ball, I thought we could have kept them around 250, but they managed to get it out to 280 and put a really good total in the board. So we can look at some areas there.
But I thought the way that the batting group just really approached it was sensational and sort of cruised in at the back end and that's sort of the blueprint that we want to put out there.
Yeah, I think it's just about playing straight. A lot of the players in our group play really well down the ground.
We don't sweep too much. They also use, I guess, the angles behind the wicket a little bit. But still, sticking to our natural game of playing straight probably helps when the ball's skidding on a little bit.
We can do that a little bit more than when it was dragging in the Test match. But I thought the girls bounced back today and just showed us how we want to play."
Game changer of the Match: Pooja Vastrakar.
Harmanpreet Kaur (India Captain): "We did well to get those runs in the first innings. I think it was a defendable score but our fielding was not up to the mark. The bowlers did a good job and bowled well but fielding let us down.
After a while, the dew was there. But the bowlers were doing good to keep it on the stumps. But I'm not happy with the fielding. We let so many runs on the field and were pretty loose. The Australian side fielded pretty well but we were poor.
Pooja brought us back into the game. She scored those crucial runs and we just have to keep doing good consistently.
We know they are a good side. We know we have to be on our toes and try playing aggressively which we have been doing in the last 20 days."
