Australia Women Cricket Team News

Australia beat India by nine runs to secure their spot in the semi-finals of the World Cup. The Aussie batting was anchored by Grace Harris and Tahlia McGrath who propelled them to 151/8 while India struggled to form crucial partnerships and ultimately fell short, finishing their innings at 142/9.

During intense pressure, one should remain calm and composed and not make mistakes. But Sophie Molineux failed to do this in the World T20 game against India at Sharjah when she and Phoebe Litchfield got caught in a chaotic mix-up that resulted in a run-out after a dropped catch.

Australia proved to be clinical yet again when it mattered most in Navi Mumbai on Tuesday to cap off their tour by securing the T20I leg 2-1. The visitors cruised to the target of 148 in 18.4 overs and denied the Women in Blue a first-ever T20I series triumph over the Southern Stars on home soil.

The cricket field has often witnessed moments that have the opposition amused, one of which was caught on camera on Sunday with Alyssa Healy left in awe in the second T20I against India. Smriti Mandhana’s elegant six against Kim Garth inside the powerplay left the Australian captain stunned.
