Earlier, the Indian men's cricket team, which is currently in Sri Lanka, also wished Mithali Raj and Co. "all the best" for their much-anticipated summit clash.
In a 13-second video, Virat Kohli's men, along with the support staff, were seen giving their best wishes to the Indian eves.
"Go for it ladies. Give it to the Poms," was the message given by newly appointed Team India head coach Ravi Shastri.
"On behalf of the whole Indian team and the support staff, all the way from Sri Lanka, we want to wish 'All the best'," said Kohli along with the entire team.
If India win, they will become only the fourth team to do so with England, Australia and New Zealand sharing all the preceding titles.
