New Zealand Women vs Australia Women Live Cricket Score, ODI WC 2025: Sutherland Goes For Just 5 | AUS-W 114/4 (19)

Another breakthrough for New Zealand! Amelia Kerr strikes as Sutherland departs in unfortunate fashion. She comes down the track to a tossed-up delivery, looking to clear the infield, but mistimes it. The ball doesn’t get enough elevation and flies straight to mid-on, where Suzie Bates takes her third catch of the innings. Sutherland goes for just 5.

AUS-W 114/4 (19)

Lea Tahuhu gets the breakthrough as Perry departs! Looking to raise the tempo, Perry comes down the track to a full delivery and tries to loft it over the infield. Both mid-off and mid-on are up in the circle, but she mistimes it and skies it straight to Suzie Bates at mid-off. An easy catch for Bates and a costly wicket for the batting side, ending Perry’s 33-run innings off 41 balls.

AUS-W 108/3 (17.2)

Drinks on the field with the game nicely poised. Australia looked in cruise control early on, but Amelia Kerr has changed the tone since coming into the attack in the 11th over. Her variations have slowed the scoring and asked some tough questions of the batters. The openers had it easy in the first half of the innings, but now the pressure is building.

AUS-W 99/2 (15)

Amelia Kerr makes an instant impact! A beautifully disguised googly that pitches on a good length and rips away, sneaking past the bat to clatter into the off stump. Phoebe Litchfield, who was looking dangerous with a quickfire 45 off 31, is undone by the turn and lack of pick.

AUS 81/2 (10.1)

Big breakthrough! Bree Illing gets her maiden World Cup wicket and it’s the skipper, Alyssa Healy. Full and angling away outside off, Healy charges down looking for an expansive drive. She gets it right off the middle, but straight into the hands of Suzie Bates at cover. Healy goes for 19.

AUS-W 40/1 (5)

A brisk start from Australia Women. Alyssa Healy is looking positive at the top, already racing to 12 off 7 with a couple of crisp boundaries. Phoebe Litchfield has settled in on 6 from 5, rotating the strike nicely.

AUS-W 18/0 (2)

Australia women captain Alyssa Healy has won the toss and opted to bat first in Indore.
