IND-W vs AUS-W: From Smriti Mandhana to Meghan Schutt, top 5 Players to Watch Out for upcoming India vs Australia in Women’s T20 World Cup Semifinal: Follow INDW vs AUSW Live
Smriti Mandhana (India)
India opener Smriti Mandhana looked in solid touch in the previous game and if she manages to produce a similar kind of performance, India can dream of playing the all-important final. So far, the 26-year-old has scored 149 runs from three matches and currently is the second-leading run-scorer of the tournament.
Meghan Schutt (Australia)
Aussie seamer Megan Schutt is currently second on the list of leading wicket-takers. She has eight wickets to her name from four matches and will be a threat in the game against India. The pacer has the experience of bowling in death overs and can choke the opponent for runs towards the ending stage of an innings.
Harmanpreet Kaur (India)
Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur might hold the key for India’s success against Australia in the all-important semi-finals. The right-handed batter has excellent numbers against Australia and has a knack of performing in crunch situations for the Women in Blue.
Ellyse Perry
Australia’s senior all-rounder Ellyse Perry might not have been in her best so far. However, she has the ability to turn the tables in big matches. She can also be handed the new ball to break the opening combination of Mandhana and Shafali Verma. She is more than handy with the bat towards the later stages.
