    Smriti Mandhana is named the ‘Player of the Match’ | She says, “Quite relieved as I was getting starts but not converting them. Wanted to go out there and score big runs. Glad that I could do it today. Whenever the ball hits my pads, I always think it’s out, don’t know why (laughs) but she (Veda) told me to take the review. Thanks to her, we got 20-30 runs extra. The way we bowled and fielded today was probably the best we did all tournament. In that aspect, this win was special”.

Before the start of the chase, Australia were dealt with a major with the absence of Healy at the top – who was the in-form batter for the Southern Stars.
