World Champions Australia won the first women’s cricket match in Commonwealth Games history with a three-wicket victory over India thanks to Ashleigh Gardner’s unbeaten half-century and Jess Jonassen’s four-wicket haul in their T20 clash on Friday.
Chasing 155 to win in the 20-over game, Australia were in trouble at one stage having lost half their side for 49, but Gardner got them over the line in style with an over remaining.
She smashed nine fours in her 52 not out off 35 balls while Grace Harris chipped in with 37 off 20 balls before Alana King (18 not out) helped finish the job.
India bowler Renuka Singh took 4-18 in her four overs but the effort was in vain.
India had opted to bat first after winning the toss and made 154-8 in their 20 overs thanks to skipper Harmanpreet Kaur’s 52 off 34 balls — a knock that included eight fours and a six — as well as opening batter Shafali Verma’s 48.
But Jonassen’s 4-22 meant that the lower order could not take them to a bigger total.
