Australia A Women Close in on Victory

Australia A Women are on the verge of winning the unofficial Test against India A Women, thanks to Maddy Darke's unbeaten century and a strong bowling performance. Darke's 105* helped Australia A set a target of 289, and India A are struggling at 149/6, needing 140 more runs to win. The home side's spinners, led by Charlie Knott, Lilly Mills, and Grace Parsons, have done the majority of the damage, taking five wickets for 42 runs. India A's top order showed resistance, but the visitors are now facing a tough task to avoid defeat.
