IND-W vs AUS-W Fantasy Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – 2nd Semi Final, ICC Women’s World Cup, 2025

Match Preview

Indian women will have to play out of their skins to beat their Australian counterparts in the semi-final. The Australian women's cricket team has been the dominant team over the years. They are still unbeaten in the tournament and will be looking to go unbeaten and win yet another World Cup.

Alana King ripped through the South African batting to pick up seven wickets for 18 runs, leaving their batters nothing much to do.

Indian women did a reasonable job in the league, with three wins and three defeats, finishing fourth. They were the only team to give the Aussie women the run for their money in their league game. Their last match of the competition against Bangladesh Women was washed off due to rain.

They won the contest before that against New Zealand Women by 53 runs. Pratika Rawal and Smriti Mandhana hit hundreds in this contest to raise a massive score for India. All Indian bowlers contributed to restricting the Kiwi batters.
