IND-W vs AUS-W head-to-head record and other important stats

India take on Australia in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2023 semi-final on Thursday at the Newlands in Cape Town. Defending champions Australia reached the last four by winning all four matches in Group A, while India lost one game to England. With record five T20 World Cup titles to their name, Australia, led by Meg Lanning, will start the match as clear favourites. India, on the other hand, have not been at their best in the World Cup and while they won three games in the group stage, none of the victories were achieved in a convincing manner.

Australia are yet to lose a T20I in 2023. Their only loss came to Ireland in a warm-up game for the World Cup.

India captain Harmanpreet Kaur on the eve of the semi-final said the recent five-match series against Australia, which finished 4-1 in the favour of the world champions, has given her team confidence to take on the mighty Aussies.

“I think that series gave us a lot of confidence, you know, the brand of cricket we played in that particular series was something which gave us a lot of confidence. And now we know them very well. We played five games back-to-back and then one practice game, we know, their strength, their weakness,” she said.

Australia batter Beth Mooney said she expects India to pose a tough challenge in the semi-final.

“I’m expecting it to be a huge contest, they’ve pushed us significantly in the last few years, and they have a bunch of match winners in that line-up as well. We’re not expecting it to be easy by any means, whether it’s with a bat or the ball, but we certainly know the style of play they’ve come at us with in the past and they know ours pretty well, too,” Mooney said.
