India and England to Play First Women's Test at Lord's, Says Coach MuzumdarPreviousNext

India and England are set to play the first-ever women's Test match at Lord's, 142 years after the men's game debuted there. India head coach Amol Muzumdar expressed surprise that the iconic venue had not hosted a women's Test before and highlighted the team's excitement, which began even before the recent T20 World Cup. Following a disappointing T20 exit, the Indian team prepared with red-ball practice at Wormsley. Muzumdar emphasized the significance of Test cricket and the pride players feel competing at Lord's.
