Australia dump India out of Women’s T20 World Cup with record chase
It was the quintessential Australian performance. They had no need for a win in their fifth and last group game, having already qualified for a Womenâs T20 World Cup semi-final by winning their first four.

Then in a trice it was gone, as an accelerating century stand from Ellyse Perry and Ash Gardner squashed the world-record chase with an over and six wickets to spare. Ruthless, nerveless, pitiless.
