    6-time World Champions, Australia women, were defeated by South Africa women in the semi-finals and they failed to defend their title. It was also the first time in 15 years that Australia women didn’t feature in the finals.

    It was a great exponent for cricket’s equality as the unparalleled dominance of Australia women made things extremely difficult for the other teams to put up a show.

    India women failed to qualify for the playoffs for the first time since 2016 as defeats at the hands of New Zealand women and Australia women in the group-stage, ended their campaign.
