India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Follow Latest Updates

India vs Australia Highlights: Jemimah Rodrigues’ magnificent unbeaten 127 powered India to a historic chase as they overhauled Australia’s 338 with five wickets in hand to storm into the Women’s World Cup final. Harmanpreet Kaur composed 89 and her crucial century stand with Rodrigues turned the tide after early setbacks, guiding India to their highest-ever successful chase in the tournament's knockout history and one of the greatest wins in women’s ODI cricket....Read More

Australia finish on 338 all-out thanks to a spectacular 119 by Phoebe Litchfield and a strong partnership with Ellyse Perry. However, India would fight back well, thanks in large part to Sree Charani taking crucial middle overs wickets. Ashleigh Gardner would light things up at the death with a rapid 63, and India need to score 339 to reach the final.

Alyssa Healy won the toss at the DY Patil Stadium, and opted to bat first. A pair of changes including her own return, while India made three switches in an attempt to overcome the powerful Aussie unit.

In one corner stands a team with seven ODI World Cup titles. The Australians lead the pack women's cricket, and are a truly dominant force. It is difficult to ever bet against this team, who have made a habit of winning and winning big. But across from them stands a team which harbours dreams of reaching that standard themselves, and if recent years are anything to stand by, are also the likeliest to get over that hump and present a sustained, prolong challenge to the mighty Aussies.

India have been here before against Australia: Harmanpreet Kaur’s famous 171 against the Aussies at the Derby County Ground in the semifinal of the 2017 World Cup led them to an unlikely win, and might be remembered as the single most transformative innings in the women’s sport. India couldn’t get the job done then, but eight years later, they are here on home turf. The DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai hosts this match, and the dreams are the same: show them what you are made of, and try to get your hands on that first, elusive World Cup trophy.

India vs Australia Women’s World Cup Semifinal playing XIs

India-W playing XI: Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Amanjot Kaur, Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh (wk), Deepti Sharma, Radha Yadav, Shree Charani, Renuka Singh Thakur, Kranti Gaud

Australia-W playing XI: Alyssa Healy (wk & c), Phoebe Litchfield, Ellyse Perry, Annabel Sutherland, Beth Mooney, Ashleigh Gardner, Tahlia McGrath, Sophie Molineux, Alana King, Kim Garth, Megan Schutt

India suffered a big loss in their final league game, as Pratika Rawal injured herself on a wet outfield in Navi Mumbai and was ruled out of the tournament. After a 212-run stand a century against the Kiwis alongside Smriti Mandhana, this will be a huge loss for India, and the hope will be that Shafali Verma comes in and delivers to her immense potential. Anything short of that, and India’s hopes begin to shrink.

India go back to the XI that played against New Zealand, with the players rested for the clash against Bangladesh returning.

Australia, meanwhile, have Alyssa Healy to return to the team. She scored a massive century in their successful chase against India in Vizag, and will hope for more of the same. The extra spinner is the call for them as well, with Alana King fresh off a 7-fer and given support by Ash Gardner and Sophie Molineux.

India Women vs Australia Women head-to-head

There’s no two ways of saying it: the head to head is very one-sided. 60 matches, 49 of those won by Australia, just 11 by India. But that doesn’t mean there is no reason for hope: in the four matches they have played recently including the three-match warmup series, India have won once, and pushed the Aussies very very close twice.

This includes their league stage meeting, played in Vizag, which went down all the way to the final over in the chase. India need some better application with their bowling, and they will be in it.

Healy voices her frustration at the centurion.

Oct 30, 2025, 20:00:18 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Out of nowhere, Smriti Mandhana is out! She is shocked, but Healy is jumping with joy

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: It seems like a pretty innocuous wide ball down leg, collected nicely by Healy, but she and Garth go up in appeal. They opt to take DRS, and it's close... Close enough! Narrowest of spikes on the snicko, and Mandhana is gone!

Wow, she can't believe it. She doesn't think she's hit that but she has to walk on 24. She was looking good, and really needed to get a big one, but it's one down leg that undoes her. Great catch by Healy.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Jemimah gets crafty! Scoops for four

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Litchfield got out to that shot in the first innings, but it's better execution from Jemimah! Goes down and scoops Garth back over the keeper's head for four. Proactive batting from this pair!

Oct 30, 2025, 19:39:32 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Smriti Mandhana launches first six with perfect straight drive!

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: What a shot that is! Slightly overpitched by Garth, and Mandhana was ready for that. Sweet swing of the bat through the line, and easily clears the straight boundary for first six.

Two balls later, Jemimah Rodrigues gets one on her pads and flicks it to the midwicket fence. Important counter-punch.

Oct 30, 2025, 19:30:04 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Jemimah joins Mandhana at crease

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: So it's Jemimah Rodrigues, India's Swiss army knife, who comes in at number three to fill that gap. She will need to take her time today, unlike her blitz against the Kiwis. Will want to get her eye in and play second fiddle to Mandhana.

18/1 after 3.

Oct 30, 2025, 19:24:55 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: GONE! Shafali whacks a 4, but dismissed next ball

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Not the start India needed! Shafali walks at Garth and hits it hard through the covers. That's a confidence-building shot, but the very next ball, Garth gets one to seam in from just outside off stump. Shafali can't get bat to it, and the DRS doesn't help either! She has to go and India are 13/1.

Oct 30, 2025, 19:20:35 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Chase gets going! Verma picks up 4

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Here we go! Schutt and Garth will share the new ball, a deadly duo. India's batters will need to be careful, but Shafali will want to still be aggressive. Gets one on the pads and nicely flicks it away for four.

Oct 30, 2025, 18:49:59 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Australia are 338 all-out, INDIA TO CHASE 339

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: That's that! A third run-out of the innings. Australia set India a target of 339, with an Indian fightback sandwiched between a terrific Phoebe Litchfield century and power-hitting by Ash Gardner at the death.

It's a steep total, but India enjoy batting against the Aussies. Is it within their capabilities to haul down? The answer on the other side.

Oct 30, 2025, 18:44:45 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Two wickets in two balls for Deepti

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Important wickets, importantly dot balls. Alana King edges a wide one which well taken by Richa Ghosh, before Molineux is bowled around her legs. 336/9, three balls left to play.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: 6, 6, run out! Gardner goes, but not without damage

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Punishing from Gardner! She's clearing the ropes with such ease. First two balls of the 49th over go for sixes – but uh oh! Miscommunication between the batters!

Gardner wants to come through, but Garth hesitates. Realises too late that she should sacrifice herself, but it's Gardner who has to go back! Huge wicket, Gardner was looking so good and looking to push this past 350!

Oct 30, 2025, 18:36:00 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: 50 up for Gardner in 41 deliveries! 319/6 with 2 to play

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Really good important late knock from Gardner here. Picking up runs at a very solid rate to push this total. These are the runs that will hurt India – 340 is so different to 320.

Oct 30, 2025, 18:29:29 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: 300 up with 4 overs to spare

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Gardner still posing a big threat. If she can really get a hold of a couple of overs here, 350 might still be on. Really important for India to keep her off strike or find some weakness – but easier said than done with her run of form.

Oct 30, 2025, 18:23:06 IST

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Big hit! Australia happy with Gardner at the crease

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Great shot! Steps out and easily lofts it for six. Australia will still be set for a very good score if Gardner can stay at the crease, given the form she is in. Already onto 27* quickly here.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: 271/6 with 8 overs to play

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Not too long ago we were discussing 370. How different the picture looks now. India will want to restrict Australia to less than 320, but some good death bowling here might see them chasing even less.

Fielding hasn't been great today. Backing up is poor, and four more bonus runs for Australia. Thrice now today.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: McGRATH RUN OUT! India's pressure making a difference

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Wow, compare the body language in the field right now compared to 12-15 overs ago. The Indian team are pumped up as they force the wickets to tumble! Gardner hits it firmly to cover inside the ring, and Jemimah is the wrong fielder to take on. Clean pick up and accurate throw right to Ghosh, and McGrath isn't even in the picture.

Wickets tumbling.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: RADHA YADAV REMOVES ELLYSE PERRY ON 77! HUGE WICKET

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Crucial moment! Ellyse Perry was well set, but she tries to cut a ball that is too close to the off stump. Misses it altogether and has her stump knocked back.

Two new batters at the crease, but it's the in-form Gardner and Tahlia McGrath. Job's still not done for India, as McGrath announces herself with a pair of boundaries.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: CHARANI AGAIN! Sutherland out cheaply in 100th international

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: The pitch is slowing up just a touch and it is allowing Charani to have an influence! Looped up again, Sutherland is through with the shot too early, and it comfortably floats back to the bowler to take a caught and bowled. Really good from her!

228/4 now.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: BIG WICKET! Charani removes Mooney

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Charani has looked very good today as well, and she gets some reward! Nicely looped up outside off, just deceives Mooney in the air. She tries to clear extra-cover but it's not great contact, and Jemimah holds on for the third wicket.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: 215/2 with 17 overs to play

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: What do Australia target from here? 17 overs to go and they are making this pitch look like a belter. 9 an over from here gets them to 370, and you have to think that is what they are looking at to be really confident.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Half-century for Ellyse Perry!

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: She hasn't been amongst the runs too heavily recently but that's a great innings. Played second fiddle to Litchfield but with the odd boundary here and there. And now she and her whole team have a platform to kick on.

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: Perry and Mooney join forces

India vs Australia LIVE Score, Women's World Cup Semi-Final: It can be deflating seeing the depth of this batting unit. Beth Mooney gets going with a sweep for four. Perry approaching her own half-century, having taken her time. 350+ very much on the cards here still.

India-W vs Australia-W LIVE Updates, World Cup Semi-final: GONE! Litchfield dismissed trying to scoop

India-W vs Australia-W LIVE Updates, World Cup Semi-final: Huge wicket! Amanjot does it. Litchfield was looking so good, but it was while trying a scoop that she just misses it and has her stumps knocked over.

Sensational innings to score a rapid 119, but she has to walk. But that is an innings to be proud of. There is so much batting still to go.
