50

IND 124/2 in 21 overs

King continues. FOUR! Jemimah sweeps and she notches up her second World Cup half-century! Close! Phoebe Litchfield literally throws her body on the line as her outstretched right hand stops Jemimah’s shot. Meanwhile, Harmanpreet and King have clashed at the non-striker’s end.

October 30, 2025 20:29

4

IND 107/2 in 18 overs

The drizzle has relented for now. Molineux with her third over and that’s a wide which misses Healy too. A welcome FOUR for India as the chasing side brings up its 100 with that gift. A couple of dots to end the over.

October 30, 2025 20:26

IND 99/2 in 17 overs

King continues. And a drizzle has returned at the DY Patil Stadium. Jemimah’s cover drive beats the fielder inside the circle but just a two there. King nicely tossing it up, forcing the batters to be a bit more cautious.

Will Smriti Mandhana's wicket be a turning point?

October 30, 2025 20:15

IND 88/2 in 15 overs

Alana King into the attack. Jemimah tries to sweep it but a fielder in place. Harmanpreet tries the same route and adds two. Harmanpreet brings out her trademark cut but is stopped by the fielder.

And that will be drinks.

October 30, 2025 20:09

IND 74/2 in 13 overs

Molineux continues. Jemimah takes a single off the first ball. Harmanpreet is strangled for space by Molineux. Unable to find any run thereafter.

Sophie Molineux into the attack. Harmanpreet hands strike to Jemimah. Litchfield stops well at short cover. Jemimah, who slipped midway running, is sent back by Harmanpreet. FOUR! Cut precisely to an empty point region.

October 30, 2025 19:52

W

IND 60/2 in 10 overs

Garth to bowl the last PowerPlay over. Smriti on strike. FOUR! Driven confidently through a heavily guarded cover region. Going down leg and Healy appeals for caught behind. And Australia reveiws it!

Smriti Mandhana c †Healy b Garth 24 (24)

October 30, 2025 19:49

4

IND 44/1 in 7 overs

October 30, 2025 19:38

IND 38/1 in 6 overs

SIX! That has been Smriti’s release shot for a while now. Goes straight over and collects six runs. Jemimah on strike now. FOUR! Clipped it past midwicket for the second boundary of the over. Three dots to end the over but India added 11 runs off the first three.

October 30, 2025 19:34

IND 27/1 in 5 overs

Schutt to Smriti, FOUR! The Indian tried to paddle it, but the ball missed the bat, the keeper and the slip fielder behind to run away for four byes. Smriti hands Jemimah strike now. Australia seems to have a fielder in any and every area India is targeting. Too high for Jemimah, who does well to get over it and take it past covers. Some confusion results in a double.

October 30, 2025 19:30

IND 20/1 in 4 overs

Garth continues. Smriti steps out to try and beat extra cover but in vain. Looking a bit iffy so far. Garth gets it a little too wide now. So far, the extra is the only run this over. Smriti finds a single alas. Jemimah to face the last ball.

October 30, 2025 19:26

IND 18/2 in 3 overs

Schutt continues. Smriti comfortable with the singles for now. Getting the ball to move back in sharply. Jemimah finds the gap behind cover and adds two runs. A tidy over, just three runs.

October 30, 2025 19:14

October 30, 2025 18:54

Australia innings recap

India has to pull off a world record-breaking chase in women’s ODIs if it wants to enter the summit clash. And it probably has itself to blame for the uphill task it has on its hands. A combination of lackadaisical fielding and expensive bowling only helped the likes Phoebe Litchfield, Ellyse Perry, and Ashleigh Gardner to take Australia to an intimidating total. With Shafali Verma set to open alongside Smriti Mandhana, the duo will have to give India the best of starts.

October 30, 2025 18:41

W

Australia 338 in 49.5 overs

Deepti to bowl the last over. A review taken on the second ball. Richa confident that King has nicked one behind. Let’s see. There’s a spike and King walks back.

Alana King 4 (4) c Richa Ghosh b Deepti Sharma

Wicket! Sophie Molineux’s leg stump is uprooted by Deepti and the offie is on a hat-trick.

Sophie Molineux 0 (1) b Deepti Sharma

October 30, 2025 18:32

4

AUS 319/6 in 48 overs

Deepti with her penultimate over. Two yorkers at Garth, followed by a single to give Gardner the strike. The bowler errs her line, going down leg, and Gardner says thank you very much. A FOUR! Gardner notches up her half-century, third against India.

October 30, 2025 18:29

6

AUS 311/6 in 47 overs

October 30, 2025 18:22

6

AUS 292/6 in 45 overs

Charani to bowl out. Well stopped by Kranti running to her left from deep cover. She seems to her hurt herself but is okay to continue. Saves two. SIX! A cracking sound off the bat and clears deep midwicket fence with ease. Release of pressure for Australia. Garth doing her role of finding the singles well. Looked to cross the deep cover area again but falls short of the deep cover fielder. Jemimah covers up so much space to stop it from going over the fence.

October 30, 2025 18:18

AUS 279/6 in 44 overs

Deepti around the wicket to Garth. Manages to find a single and hand Gardner strike. A few singles so far. Four off the over. Much tidier over for India.

October 30, 2025 18:14

AUS 275/6 in 43 overs

Charani returns. She will be hoping to add another wicket. Gardner steps out and hacks it to long on for a single. Garth also adds a run. Powers it to deep midwicket but Jemimah was stationed there. Just one run. Four runs from the over.

October 30, 2025 18:09

AUS 271/6 in 42 overs

Amanjot brought back. Starts with a bit of width and lets McGrath get a single. FOUR! Off the back foot and perfectly in the gap. Straightens the line a bit and Gardner can’t do too much. OUT! McGrath jogs back to the dugout after being caught very short. Jemimah with the perfect throw back to the keeper’s end. Gardner looks distraught.

Tahlia McGrath run out (Rodrigues/†Ghosh) 12 (7)

An attempt for a direct hit and that’s another overthrow. That goes to the ropes. FOUR.

October 30, 2025 18:05

4

AUS 260/5 in 41 overs

Deepti back. Bowled very wide and Richa had to dive to get there. It could have been a stumping had she been on her feet. Full and on middle stump to Gardner, who finds a single at deep midwicket. Gets her line wrong and goes all the way to the ropes. Off Gardner’s pads in fact.

October 30, 2025 18:00

W

AUS 253/5 in 40 overs

Radha brought back. OUT! Perry falls! Arm ball. The ball just stays straight and beats the Australian’s bat to knock the top of off stump. It was the vice-captain’s decision to bring her on.

Ellyse Perry b Yadav 77 (88)

Harmanpreet with an expensive misfield. Slips through her grasp at covers and goes away to the ropes. FOUR! Tahlia McGrath is off to a very positive start here. 10 runs.

October 30, 2025 17:55

4

AUS 243/4 in 39 overs

Kranti returns. Harmanpreet changing her bowlers very frequently. FOUR! Too much width given and Perry blasts it past backward point for a much-needed boundary. Cracks up a bouncer, and Gardner watches it go. Does it agan, but slightly wider. Gardner tries to throw her bat at it, but to no avail. A misfield gives away three runs.

October 30, 2025 17:53

AUS 234/4 in 38 overs

Charani persists. Four dots and just the one single so far. Charani tempting the batters but they are unable to reap any benefits. And it ends like that - just the one run off the over.

October 30, 2025 17:49

AUS 233/4 in 37 overs

Renuka again. Perry is off the mark with a single. Gardner now. Driven crisply through covers. Deep cover fielder does well to save two runs. On leg stump line and Gardner puts it away to the leg side for one run. Five off the over.

October 30, 2025 17:45

W

AUS 228/4 in 36 overs

Charani continues. A misfield gives away a single. Just short! Sutherland knocked it back to Charani but did not get enough. OUT! A replay of the previous ball and Sutherland has to go! Just enough height that it carries to Charani.

Annabel Sutherland c & b Shree Charani 3 (6)

October 30, 2025 17:40

AUS 225/3 in 35 overs

Annabel Sutherland is the new batter in. Renuka has been called back as well. Once again, four singles in five balls. Perry will be itching to go big now, but she cannot. Just another single. Five runs off it.

W

AUS 220/3 in 34 overs

Charani returns. Five singles and Mooney will be searching for a boundary. OUT! The ploy has worked! A flighted ball, but she was early on the shot and ended up chipping it. Mooney finds the safest of hands in Jemimah at extra cover.

October 30, 2025 17:30

4

AUS 215/2 in 33 overs

Deepti brought back. Pulls back the length and Mooney moves around to make some space. Ended up mistiming one but short of long off. A few singles now, meaning Perry may want to go for it now. FOUR! Mooney takes the task on instead. Steps down and cracks it over to deep midwicket ropes.

October 30, 2025 17:27

AUS 207/2 in 32 overs

Amanjot showcasing her variations here. Gets it a little too short on the second and Mooney goes across to deep midwicket fence. Brings up the 200 for Australia. Gets Perry on strike now. SIX! Launched over long on for a maximum. Tidies up in the end, but 11 runs conceded.

October 30, 2025 17:23

50

AUS 196/2 in 31 overs

Radha to bowl her fifth. Full toss to Mooney, who gets enough height on it to avoid mid wicket. Perry trying to cut it past short third, but no luck. Brings up her fifty with a single to long on. Just the three off the over.

October 30, 2025 17:19

AUS 193/2 in 30 overs

Amanjot continues. Perry stuck in that mid-40s region as she’s happy to take it easy. Just a few singles so far. A quick two taken in the end.

October 30, 2025 17:14

4

AUS 188/2 in 29 overs

Radha back. FOUR! Down leg and Mooney’s sweep is enough to take the ball to deep fine leg for a boundary. Radha’s gets her arm cut after diving but she continues on. That wasn’t the smartest of reviews by Harmanpreet. Pitching outside leg and Mooney didn’t have anything to worry about. This was India’s ninth unsuccessful review in this tournament.

October 30, 2025 17:09

W

AUS 181/1 in 28 overs

Amanjot continues. OUT! Litchfield tries to scoop it over Richa Ghosh but she misses and the ball scatters into the bails. Huge breakthrough for India.

October 30, 2025 17:01

AUS 162/1 in 26 overs

Amanjot with her third over. After bowling at the stumps, the pacer sends it a bit wide. Perry sends it towards offside for a single. CHANCE! Looks like there was an edge off Litchfield’s bat but Richa Ghosh fails to take the catch. Just three singles off that. Good patch for India.

October 30, 2025 16:58

AUS 159/1 in 25 overs

Radha continues. Three dots, followed by two singles. No boundary, India will need more of these to restrict these two batters.

October 30, 2025 16:56

100

AUS 157/1 in 24 overs

HUNDRED!!! Litchfield smacks Shree Charani down the ground and she brings up her maiden ODI World Cup century in 77 balls!

October 30, 2025 16:51

AUS 152/1 in 23 overs

4

AUS 149/1 in 22 overs

Amanjot brought back. And a thick edge takes the ball racing towards deep third for a FOUR! Litchfield is in her 90s. Amanjot has ended the over well, conceding just the one run after that boundary.

October 30, 2025 16:43

4

AUS 144/1 in 21 overs

Deepti with her fourth over. Litchfield is continuing to swear by her loyal reverse-sweep! This time, a top edge off that shot takes the ball over two chasing fielders at backward point and takes it all the way for a FOUR! Meanwhile, Harmanpreet Kaur is not on the field at the moment.

October 30, 2025 16:37

4

AUS 135/1 in 20 overs

Another new bowler from the other end. Radha Yadav into the attack and Litchfield, with her head down, sends the ball over mid on for a FOUR! She backs it up with another FOUR! This time through covers as the speed of that shot is too quick for a chasing Renuka. 100-run partnership up between the two batters. Litchfield ends the over with a FOUR! That’s 14 runs off Radha’s first over.

October 30, 2025 16:31

AUS 121/1 in 19 overs

Change in bowling, Amanjot Kaur is handed the ball. Quick single taken there as Radha Yadav fails to pick the ball properly. Litchfield was way out of her crease and would have been out if the throw was on time. FOUR! Litchfield reverse scoops it past Richa Ghosh as the ball races to the boundary through deep fine leg.

October 30, 2025 16:29

AUS 115/1 in 18 overs

Shree Charani continues. Jemimah does well to cut the run over at short mid-wicket. Litchfield employing her reverse-sweep once again to rotate strike. Good over for India, just the two runs conceded.

October 30, 2025 16:19

6

AUS 107/1 in 16 overs

Shree Charani with her third over. Litchfield takes a single, Perry defends it. SIX! Litchfield continues to use her feet as she sends it over extra cover for a maximum! There’s confusions on the field. The umpire said that Litchfield’s reverse sweep had holed out to short third but there’s a hold-up. Third umpire is taking a look and the ball has bounced. Litchfield stays on!

October 30, 2025 16:16

AUS 99/1 in 15 overs

SIX! Perry steps out to powers it well over long on for a maximum. Deepti bowls it fuller on the next. Litchfield and Perry take a few singles.

October 30, 2025 16:13

4

AUS 89/1 in 14 overs

Charani continues. Perry knocks it to long on for a single. FOUR! Litchfield gets to her fifty! A not-so-convincing loft over the bowler, but long on had been pulled back. The ball bounced safely and went over the fence. Seven runs off the over.

October 30, 2025 16:09

AUS 82/1 in 13 overs

Deepti Sharma has been roped in as well. Spin from both ends. Litchfield gets off the mark with a single. Perry takes the ball to long on for a single as well. Brings out the reverse sweep but does not get it right. Ball bounces over Richa and lands safe. Perry was swiftly sent back.

October 30, 2025 16:06

AUS 80/1 in 12 overs

Sree Charani into the attack. First sign of spin. Beats Litchfield on the first! And the Australian opts to use her feet to adjust to the spin the left-arm spinner is producing. Perry on strike now. Just the one run off the over.

October 30, 2025 15:56

4

AUS 72/1 in 10 overs

Krnati to bowl the final over of the PowerPlay. Starts with two dots, but gets the line wrong on the third. Going down leg and punished by Perry to deep backward square leg for FOUR! FOUR more! Full toss and punished again. Knocks it straight down the ground. FOUR to end the over! Uses the face of the bat to cut it past short third. Exonsive over, again.

October 30, 2025 15:53

4

AUS 60/1 in 9 overs

Renuka to bowl her fifth. Keeping the stumps in play and denying Litchfield any room to free up. Edged and goes away for FOUR! Just got it slighlty wider this time and Litchfield just got enough on it to beat Deepti at slip. Just the boundary off the over.

October 30, 2025 15:48

4

AUS 56/1 in 8 overs

FOUR! Litchfield starts with a brisk cut past Radha Yadav at backward point for a boundary. Krnati switching the line now, but gets it wrong. FOUR! Litchfield looking in fine touch here. Targets the same area again, and the fielder gets the timing wrong. FOUR! Another misfield, this time by Richa Ghosh. Goes down the leg side and Richa cannot get to it. Very expensive over already, still three balls remain. 15 runs off the over.

October 30, 2025 15:37

4

AUS 34/1 in 6 overs

..Kranti will be ecstatic. Healy has fallen victim to her a few times now. The Indian players have some sunshine falling on them, in more ways than one. Ellyse Perry walks in to join Litchfield.

Starts with a cracker! Just gets it to shape away from Perry’s bat. Scampers down the track on the next for a single. A bit of an overthrow but they don’t run a second. An overthrow on the fifth ball. Uncalled for by Deepti Sharma as the ball runs away to the fence. FOUR! Litchfield goes over mid off again and goes to the ropes.

October 30, 2025 15:32

Good news!

The umpires are walking out to the middle, without using umbrellas.

The covers also seem to be coming off. Just the one on the main track. We may get a start time update very soon.

Renuka continues. Dropped! Captain hands Captain a reprieve! Healy with a mistimed shot to mid off. Harmanpreet runs to her right and gets to the ball in time, but it plops right out of her grasp.

October 30, 2025 15:01

October 30, 2025 14:54

It's almost time!

Both teams are walking out to the field for the anthems. Starting with the Australian anthem, followed by the Indian anthem. Smiles beaming all around.

We’re now only a few moments away from the start!

It looks like the Indian team huddle had a nice visitor in one of the kids who had accompanied them for the anthems. A lot of laughter throughout, and they are ready to take the field. Australia’s opening pair, Alyssa Healy and Phoebe Litchfield, are at the crease.

October 30, 2025 14:43

PITCH REPORT

Overcast and humid conditions in Navi Mumbai. The track is evenly but lightly covered with grass and quite dry. Batters should have a good time, but bowlers could have an early advantage with movement, and later on for the spinners.

66m hit straight down the ground. Slight bias in the square boundaries - 53m to one side, 59m to the other.
