India’s women’s team travels to Australia in February 2026 for seven matches across T20Is, ODIs, and a Test. The tour runs through early March, hitting six Australian venues.
This series forms part of the first cycle under the ICC Women’s Future Tours Program, which locks in bilateral cricket between top nations until 2029.
That program replaced the old system, where women’s teams sometimes went months without international matches, creating proper scheduling that men’s cricket has had for years.
This article breaks down match dates, venues, streaming options, probable squads, and ticket prices. You’ll also find details on how family packages work and what each seating category actually gets you.

Complete India Women’s Tour of Australia 2026 Schedule
This upcoming India Women’s Tour of Australia takes place in a total of six different venues. The tour word is taken seriously, the matches going across Sydney, Canberra, Adelaide, Brisbane, Hobart, and even Perth.
Apparently, the 3rd and final ODI match was shifted from Melbourne to Hobart due to floodlight problems faced by the Melbourne venue.

India Women’s Tour Of Australia 2026 Squads
There has been no official announcement for the teams on either India’s or Australia’s side, and this is probably because of how far away the matches are.
The teams below are tentative, so it is likely that some names will shift out or in depending on availability and fitness statuses.
Australian Women’s Team
- Ellyse Perry
- Georgia Voll
- Phoebe Litchfield
- Annabel Sutherland
- Ashleigh Gardner
- Georgia Wareham
- Heather Graham
- Tahlia McGrath
- Alyssa Healy
- Beth Mooney
- Alana King
- Darcie Brown
- Kim Garth
- Megan Schutt
- Sophie Molineux
Australia brings experience through Perry and Healy while blooding newer talent like Voll and Litchfield. Their bowling attack mixes pace and spin smartly, with Schutt and Gardner anchoring both departments.
Here is the tentative women’s team for the India Women’s Tour of Australia 2026.
Indian Women’s Team
- Harleen Deol
- Harmanpreet Kaur
- Jemimah Rodrigues
- Pratika Rawal
- Smriti Mandhana
- Amanjot Kaur
- Deepti Sharma
- Sneh Rana
- Richa Ghosh
- Uma Chetry
- Arundhati Reddy
- Kranti Gaud
- Radha Yadav
- Renuka Singh Thakur
- Sree Charani
Mandhana and Harmanpreet carry the batting weight in the team. Deepti Sharma is capable of doing the middle-order rescue jobs when the top order fails, which happens more often than India would prefer, while Renuka Thakur can lead the pace attack.

Conclusion: India Women’s Tour Of Australia Starts Mid February Of 2026, & Includes T20s, ODI, & A Test.
Seven matches spread across three formats mean both teams rotate squads and tactics. Australia plays at home, which always helps, but India’s recent form makes this tougher than previous tours.
T20Is test power hitting and sharp fielding. ODIs need patience and smart bowling changes. The Test separates teams with proper technique from those who crumble under pressure over four days.
Rankings shift based on these results, and players fighting for World Cup spots will push harder. February through early March shows which team handles Australian pitches better, Sydney’s variable bounce, Perth’s pace, and Hobart’s swing.
Form leading into bigger tournaments often builds or breaks during tours like this one.
