England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt: "I wanted to bowl as well, probably for similar reasons, probably a bit of dew later on.

"Partnerships will be really important, stay in the game as long as possible. India got a big partnership."

"We're the same team. We discussed changes, but we want to go with confidence into the knock-out stages, I think we've got the right combination."

Australia stand-in captain Tahlia McGrath: "We're pretty happy to chase under lights and there is a little bit of grass left on the pitch.

"It's really important in tournament play to keep the momentum going and we've got people in different roles today so really excited for that."

Two qualified teams, jostling for semi-final placings.

South Africa lead the World Cup table, but whoever wins out of England and Australia at Indore will leapfrog to the top of the standings.

Still plenty to play for.
