The pressure is high on hosts India, coming off a loss to South Africa in their previous match. The Harmanpreet Kaur-led Women in Blue have suffered batting collapses in all three matches so far in the tournament. Richa Ghosh has rescued her team twice with her brilliant innings against South Africa and Pakistan.

Indian bowlers will have to improve

India's death-over bowling also appeared weak while defending 251 against South Africa. Nadine de Klerk easily chased down the target against the hosts' bowlers. India's biggest challenge now is adjusting its batting strategy. Meanwhile, in a match against Pakistan, Australia were in danger of being all out for less than 100, having lost 7 wickets for 76 runs.

However, Beth Mooney played one of her finest World Cup innings to help her team reach 221. Her bowling unit then easily restricted Pakistan. Australia's bowling, which includes Megan Schutt and Ashleigh Gardner, will pose a significant challenge for India. Both India and Australia will be determined to win this match.
