Despite their loss against Australia on Sunday Visakhapatnam, the Indian women's cricket team held their third spot in the updated ICC Women's World Cup 2025 points table. Coming into the game at no.3, India rode on half-centuries from openers Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal, to post 330 all out in 48.5 overs.
The Indians were themselves to blame. After finding themselves at 294/4 in 42.5 overs, the Indians lost their last six wickets for 36 runs, which cost them dearly. In reply, captain Alyssa Healy's 142 took the game away from Indians as Australia romped home with one over to spare.
After this loss, India have four points from four games with two wins and two losses. Ahead of India are table-toppers Australia (7 points from 4 games) and England, who have six points from three games. It must be noted that Australia had one game washed out against Sri Lanka.
