Match Ended

Match 6, Edgbaston, Birmingham , Jul 31, 2022

Australia Women

68/1 (8.1/20)

Barbados Women

64 (20.0/20)

Australia Women beat Barbados Women by 9 wickets

Right then! That's all we have from the lopsided affair! Australia Women have sealed a spot in the semi-final, while Barbados Women still have a chance to go through, but it's not going to be an easy task for them. It will be England Women up against South Africa Women in the next encounter of the Women's T20 in the Commonwealth Games 2022. That game will be played on Tuesday, 2nd August. The action is set to get underway at 3.30 pm IST (10.00 am GMT). But as you all know our build-up will begin in advance. Do join us then. Till then, goodbye and take care!

Earlier in the game, Meg Lanning elected to bowl first and the bowlers absolutely bamboozled the batting line-up of Barbados Women. They bundled their opposition out for just 64 runs, with Alana King grabbing four wickets and Tahlia McGrath picking three. In the end, they breezed past and got over the line within 9 overs and with 9 wickets in hand.

It was all too easy for Australia Women! They lost an early wicket by losing Beth Mooney for just two runs. But losing one wicket was never going to put Australia Women under pressure. They had many wickets in hand with fewer runs to chase. Meg Lanning walked in to bat and started firing from the word go. Alyssa Healy on the other hand took her time to settle in but once she was set, there was no stopping her. The duo stitched an unbeaten partnership of 63 runs and took Australia Women home comfortably. Time and again they have proved why they are the World Champions, and this game was just another instance of that.

Barbados Women got off to a perfect start while coming to bowl. Shanika Bruce in her first over sent back Beth Mooney for a timid score. However, they needed way more wickets to put Australia Women under pressure which they failed to do so. They started leaking runs post that and were handed a crushing defeat in the end. A tough day in the office for Barbados Women! They will need to reflect on their performance and come back stronger if they want to qualify for the semi-final.

A convincing victory for Australia Women! Well, chasing a target of 65 was always going to be a walk in the park for the World Champions! With this win, they have grabbed a total of 4 points and have progressed to the semi-final of this exuberant tournament. While Barbados Women have a lot to ponder about for their next game.
