Christmas celebration for the Australian women’s team on Monday would have been a happier one. However, the Australians, though disappointed with the eight-wicket loss on Sunday, didn’t brood over the loss too much, even if it was the first time they went down to India in a Test.

Australia captain Alyssa Healy said at the end of the Test that she was pleased with the way her team fought back to extend the match till Sunday afternoon.
