India vs Australia Women's World Cup LIVE - India loses by 6 wickets - Updates, Wickets, Scores, Blog

India ends with 277/7

End of India's quota of 50 overs and they finish with 277 on the board. Pooja Vastrakar yorks herself with the final delivery of the innings and jams one straight to the bowler.

Harmanpreet is already half-way down the pitch looking for a non-existent single and Vastrakar sacrifices her wicket.

Right then, 278 is the magical number for Australia to confirm their semifinal berth. Can they do it? Back with India's defence in a while.

50* Partnership

50 partnership between Harman and Pooja and they reach there with a massive six down the ground by the latter off Meghan Schutt.

IND - 269/6 (49)

50* Harmanpreet Kaur

The Indian vice-captain continues her rich vein of form and brings up her third half-century of the ongoing World Cup. Took her just 42 deliveries to reach the mark.

IND - 257/6 (48)

India on the charge!

Harmanpreet Kaur and Pooja Vastrakar tear into Alana King and take 17 runs off the 46th over. A six and two boundaries from that and all off a sudden India are just shy of 250.

IND - 242/6 (46)

India's run-rate falls below 5

The pressure is mounting on India. Their run-rate has dipped below 5 after a long time and it is showing. Harmanpreet tries to loft Alana King down the ground but manages to get only the height.

Luckily for her and India she is put down by Beth Mooney.

IND - 219/6 (44)

India crumbling now

India are crumbling under pressure now. Sneh Rana fails to pick up an in-drifter from Jess Jonnasen and is cleaned up for a duck. Australia fighting back well.

IND - 213/6 (42.1)

Alana King STRIKES!

Yet another low score for Richa Ghosh in this World Cup as Alana King has her stumped. A premeditated shot from the youngster as she came down the track rather early, but King did well to put it out of the batter's reach. Alyssa Healy does the rest behind the stumps.

Sneh Rana comes out to accompany Harmanpreet Kaur with 9 overs left.

IND - 212/5 (41.1) 

200 comes up for India

India have crossed the 200 mark in the 40th over. They reach there with a couple from Richa Ghosh's paddle sweep. 10 overs left and the women in blue have Harmanpreet, Richa in the middle. They also have Vastrakar, Sneh waiting in the dugout.

Can they post something over 290?

IND - 200/4 (40)

Mithali Raj OUT!

The Indian skipper has to walk back. That was a loopy delivery from Alana King. Mithali tries to slog it out of the park, she timed it well but the placement was off. Hits it straight to Ellyse Perry at deep-mid wicket.

IND - 186/4 (37.3)

IND - 176/3 (35)

India has maintained their scoring rate despite losing Yastika Bhatia. Harmanpreet was hit in the head once, but has carried on. Mithali, on the other hand, continues to find the odd boundary while rotating the strike.

IND - 176/3 (35)
