Pune:India women and New Zealand women are all set to engage in a three-match ODI series after the conclusion of the T20 World Cup recently.

New Zealand have included wicketkeeper Polly Inglis, who has received her maiden call-up for the series. Also, batter Lauren Down is added to the squad after returning from a maternity break in July. India’s aggressive batter Richa Ghosh will miss the series due to the class 12 board exams.
