Overview
- India chased 339 to finish 341/5 with nine balls remaining, the highest successful chase in a World Cup knockout, ending Australia’s 15-match unbeaten run in the tournament.
- Jemimah Rodrigues anchored the pursuit with an unbeaten 127 and shared a 167-run stand with captain Harmanpreet Kaur, who scored 89.
- Late cameos from Richa Ghosh (26 off 16) and Deepti Sharma (24) kept India ahead before Amanjot Kaur struck the winning boundary.
- Australia posted 338 in 49.5 overs led by Phoebe Litchfield’s 119, Ellyse Perry’s 77 and Ash Gardner’s 63, with Shree Charani and Deepti Sharma taking two wickets each.
- Rodrigues said post-match that she had struggled with anxiety and was dropped earlier in the tournament, and Australia’s missed chances to dismiss her proved costly.
