CAPE TOWN, AFP: Australia reached their seventh successive Women’s T20 World Cup final when a thrilling Indian run chase fell agonisingly short at Newlands on Thursday.
Australia won by five runs when India finished on 167 for eight in reply to Australia’s 172 for four.
Australia will face either England or South Africa in Sunday’s final.
“One of the best wins I’ve been involved in. India came hard at us. We knew this score would’ve been hard to defend. We pulled through in the clutch moments,” said Australia captain Meg Lanning.
