India Women vs. Australia Women
Alyssa Healy played an exceptional innings to help Australia beat India in an unforgettable World Cup match on Tuesday. Her 142 helped Australia chase down 331 runs at the YS Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam for an unprecedented run chase – the highest run chase ever attempted by any women’s one day international side! Australia entered their last Group Stage game leading England by four points and will likely go through to reach the semi finals of this tournament.
Healy was right in the thick of the action throughout, and her powerful square cut in the final over nearly cleared the stumps – an historic moment in an already monumental contest, which she celebrated with what might be described as her signature dance move of this tournament.
Australia, who are leading the Women’s ODI World Cup table, have already qualified for the semi-finals on net run rate, ahead of their final group stage game with England at Indore on Saturday. Healy may miss this match after experiencing a minor calf injury during training; she will be assessed before England play South Africa on Tuesday. Beth Mooney will replace Healy as wicketkeeper while Tahlia McGrath will captain in her absence while Georgia Voll is scheduled to feature.
The Australian women’s national cricket team is a professional squad representing Australia in international women’s one-day and Twenty20 cricket matches. Formerly known as the Southern Stars, this professional squad is managed and coached by Shelley Nitschke and includes at least 18 women signed under contract by Cricket Australia who represent cricket on a national scale and oversee the National Performance Program.
The Rivalry
Since 2004, Australia Women’s cricket team, also known as the Southern Stars, have consistently outshone India Women’s cricket team in bilateral ODI series. Australia Women have won 48 out of 59 meetings against India so far and lead in Women’s World Cup race by an overwhelming margin.
But India’s gradual ascension as a global force began to alter this narrative. As its infrastructure, talent pool, and confidence expanded, Indian women slowly made gains against Australia – especially during last-over chases when bat on ball gave an electric vibe! But head-to-head numbers still favored Australia in all formats of cricket with India often eclipsed by Australian superiority in most matches.
On Saturday’s matchup between these rivals will come the roar of the crowd and crackle of bat on ball as each battle plays out to become one of women’s sport’s most electrifying rivalries – no doubt set for another memorable experience!
Even though Australia currently leads this rivalry lopsidedly, Visakhapatnam should still prove exciting as all 15,087 tickets for the game sold out quickly earlier in the week – showing immense enthusiasm among spectators for this battle of rivalries. Australia captain Alyssa Healy even went as far as calling India an “sleeping giant”, vowing to put them in their place!
At the second ODI, India achieved their aim. Smriti Mandhana’s brilliant 117 led to an emphatic 102-run defeat for Australia – their largest ever in an ODI match and an unmistakable statement ahead of the 2025 World Cup. Even though this series remains tied, Mandhana’s performance was seen as a watershed moment – marking India’s first win over Australia at any major ODI tournament and marking an important beginning for them.
Historical Backdrop
Australia Women have long been admired for their impressive batting lineups and disciplined bowling attack, yet India’s rapid ascension over recent years has narrowed the gap between them, making their clashes more captivating than ever. Games between these sides showcase both sides’ strengths – Australian technical prowess versus India’s relentless fighting spirit.
India-Australia rivalry has produced many memorable moments ranging from nail-biting finishes to individual brilliance. But more than anything, India-Australia matches have shown the power of sportsmanship and respect. Both teams have formed relationships which celebrate cricket’s passion and talent while inspiring future generations and captivating fans worldwide.
As the game develops, fans can look forward to more high-caliber contests between these two powerhouses. We may witness exciting run chases, record breaking performances and moments that will live long in our memories.
Smriti Mandhana’s elegant stroke play and aggressive approach make her a formidable threat for any team, while Harmanpreet Kaur, India’s captain, provides both runs and strategic brilliance. Jemimah Rodrigues presents another threat with her quick scoring rates while Deepti Sharma can defend against opponents with consistent length and line.
Australian cricket’s current team stands as an emblem for its progress; their triumph at the 2019 Women’s World Cup cemented their status as dual world champions and proved that cricket can be played by anyone, no matter gender or age.

Healy executes an awesome square drive shot, seemingly unaware that Mandhana in deep backward square had any chance to stop it before it went over her head.
Healy is unstoppable now; she strikes another four for sheer momentum and set out to break all records – which she eventually did, setting both the highest winning run chase in women’s ODI history and second-highest score made batting first – an astounding innings from one of Australia’s greatest batsmen that will go down as history’s finest performance! Australia eventually prevailed by eight wickets.
