Defending champions Australia can book their place in the semifinals of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup with a win against India on Sunday as they continue their search for a record-extending seventh title.
The Aussies top the group with six points, following three straight wins, to begin the tournament being staged in the United Arab Emirates. Even a defeat is likely to see the Australians qualify in the second spot given their far superior run rate, helped greatly by their nine-wicket win against Pakistan on Friday.
India, on the other hand, simply must win. They currently hold the second spot, with two wins and one defeat from their three games, from New Zealand on the net run rate. The Kiwis overcame the Indians in a shock 58-run win in both teams’ tournament opener.
Australia captain Alyssa Healy will miss the game, having sustained a calf injury in the victory against Pakistan, so Ashleigh Gardner will deputise.
