Run OUT. OUT! Run Out. Deepti Sharma to Kim Garth. Off break half volley, outside off stump down the track driving, to long off for 1 run, fielded by Kaur, by Ghosh. That's the end of the first innings, and what a dominant performance it has been from Australia! They've posted the highest-ever team total in a Women's World Cup semi-final. After the early dismissal of Alyssa Healy, Phoebe Litchfield and Ellyse Perry steadied the innings with a brilliant 155-run partnership for the second wicket, pushing India firmly on the defensive. Litchfield went on to score her maiden World Cup century, showcasing maturity beyond her years. Though India managed to claw back with a few wickets, Ashleigh Gardner's explosive hitting in the final overs ensured Australia finished in a commanding position. Can India chase down this mammoth total and script a historic comeback? Stay tuned, the chase begins shortly!
