Australia vs India Women Predictions

Australia are in incredible form and look like a team that can’t be beaten. India’s inability to close out South Africa suggests they don’t have the squad strength to challenge a strong unit like Australia.

Head-to-Head

Australia Women Form

Australia have won three of their matches in the tournament by between 65 to 113 runs, with the other match being a nine-wicket win over Bangladesh.

After losing Beth Mooney for a first ball duck, Georgia Voll (39 off 28) and Ellyse Perry (71 off 48) added 100 for the second wicket in just more than nine overs. Annabel Sutherland (27 off 18) and Nicola Carey (26* off 13) hit out late to lift Australia to 199/7 off their 20 overs.

Australia then rolled Pakistan for just 86 runs off 13.4 overs, with Ellyse Perry (2/9), Annabel Sutherland (2/12) and Sophie Molineux (2/6) doing the damage with the ball.

India Women Form

India have three big wins in the tournament but lost to South Africa by six wickets, which has put them under huge pressure to beat Australia to make it into the semi-finals as the Proteas are likely to beat Bangladesh in their match earlier in the day.

In their last match India restricted Bangladesh to 136/8 off their 20 overs, with Shree Charani (2/21) and Radha Yadav (3/28) doing the damage with the ball.

India raced to the win off 16.5 overs for the loss of five wickets. Shafali Verma top-scored with 53 off 34 balls to follow up scores of 55 and 31 in her two previous matches. Jemimah Rodrigues (26) and Yastika Bhatia (23) offered her support in the run chase.

Team news

Phoebe Litchfield is fit and firing and likely to be back in the side to take on India. India will probably keep Renuka Thakur and Radha Yadav in their side after the win over Bangladesh as they both have good playing records against Australia.

Australia Women (possible XI): Beth Mooney, Georgia Voll, Phoebe Litchfield, Ellyse Perry, Ashleigh Gardner, Georgia Wareham, Annabel Sutherland, Nicola Carey, Sophie Molineux (c), Alana King, Kim Garth.

India Women (possible XI): Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Yastika Bhatia, Jemimah Rodrigues, Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Richa Ghosh, Deepti Sharma, Radha Yadav, Sree Charani, Nandni Sharma, Renuka Thakur.

Verdict

Australia v India Women
