Next Tour for Australia women
As a lead-up to the World Cup on home soil, Australia will play Pakistan in three 50-over games and three 20-over games. After recovering from a calf ailment, vice-captain Healy will be back on the field, and leg-spinner Wareham will make his long-awaited comeback from an ACL injury.
Wareham has not participated in a T20 match since rupturing her ACL in October 2021. And last Thursday was only her second match since the injury when she represented Victoria in the local one-day league.
