Australia captain Alyssa Healy is in line for a return to the side – as a batter only, rather than also taking the gloves – after missing the three ODI series on home turf against India due to injury. Young opener Georgia Voll fitted in seamlessly in Healy’s absence, amassing 173 runs in three knocks, and explained what it meant to be handed a debut cap and then grasp her opportunity.
I do enjoy opening. That’s the goal that I’d love to keep going, but obviously Alyssa Healy is a world-class player, so she slots right back in. But this whole team is world class, so it’s hard to crack any spot.
