India Women and Australia Women are locked in one of the tournament's biggest clashes at Lord's on June 28 — a virtual knockout match with a Women's T20 World Cup 2026 semi-final place on the line.
The Match
India Women posted 170 for 4 from their 20 overs, giving Australia a testing target. The chase is live, with Australia in the hunt but needing a strong finish to chase it down. Ellyse Perry and Ashleigh Gardner are at the crease for Australia, who need 53 from the remaining 32 balls as of the latest update.
Why This Match Matters
Both India and Australia are fighting for a top-two finish in Group 1. Australia started the tournament as one of the favourites; India have been inconsistent but dangerous. The winner goes through to the semi-finals at The Oval on June 30. South Africa are also watching closely, having beaten Bangladesh 118/6 earlier today at Lord's.
