If Litchfield does return it would mean veteran all-rounder Ellyse Perry would drop back down to the No.4 position following her Player of the Match performance against Pakistan and one unlucky player would drop out of the XI entirely.
Young pacer Lucy Hamilton could be the player that misses out for Litchfield’s impending return, while Nitschke also confirmed all-rounder Grace Harris could be in line for a recall given her experience at Lord’s.
“She (Harris) has played at Lord’s quite a bit with the London Spirit, so she certainly throws her hat into the ring as well,” Nitschke said.
“She’s been really unlucky so we’ve certainly got some options.”
A win against India will ensure Australia finish on top of their group and enter the semi-finals unbeaten, while a loss may also prove enough for the side to reach the knockout stages.
