AUS vs WI Semi-Final Today: Match Preview, Live Updates & Who Will Win

The most electric thing about a Women's T20 World Cup Semi final was that it had not happened before. The stakes are high; the margins are incredibly thin; it's possible to potentially scrap the script completely on any given day. Tonight, Australia will go walking for the second semi-final of this tournament - the T20 31/32 – and the final will be on the balance sheet. Kick-off will begin at 7:00 pm and there will be a lot of eyes on the world of women's cricket — and for all the right reasons.You can enjoy the match using Reddy Anna Online Book ID.

Australia: A Team Playing in a Different League

Australia have a huge momentum going at the start of the match. They have been the leading side from the get-go, having won all their group games and finished top of group spot unbeaten. Their top of group stage finishes against India, which was a gorgeous and record breaking pacer drive, was brilliant on par. Australia chased an almost unbeatable total against one of the world's most dangerous bowlers to complete the highest successful run-chase in the history of Women's T20 World Cup with a 6-wicket victory.

Captain Sophie Molineux has been a fearless leader, calm and wise. She has been the deadliest instrument in her weaponry so far in this tournament and this has been confirmed by Molineux as one of the victims, taking six wickets in the group stage itself. The boys and girls on the team around her are themselves full of match-winners at all levels. Ashleigh Gardner who bowled India out in the aforementioned record pursuit would be one of the most dangerous allrounders in the world when she's on fire. The indomitable Ellyse Perry (age doesn't matter – she's swift and relentless and brilliant, just like that –) has shown again that she is in any company when it comes to greatest women's cricketers of all time, going scoreline-worthy in a magnificent 71 on 48 balls against Pakistan earlier in the day. Georgia Voll, Phoebe Litchfield, Annabel Sutherland, Kim Garth and Alana King, Georgia has strength and quality in every tier of this Australian lineup, as does Beth Mooney, who is very rare in the batting department.

West Indies: Dangerous, Experienced and Hungry for an Upset

And yet. It isn't an accident that West Indians are here. They are dangerous, experienced and very capable of producing moments of Caribbean brilliance when the pressure is at its highest and opened this tournament off with three straight victories. Captain Hayley Matthews has been sensational with both bat and ball as she has come up with seven wickets in the group stage, making her one of the bophatic threats in the tournament. Matthews is the type that can bowl three or four overs that could make all the difference in a contest, or come lower in the order when his team needs him to bat, do the rest and secure a victory. Karishma Ramharack has played clever and disciplined alongside her, while stalwarts such as Stafanie Taylor and Shemaine Campbelle have added to the experience of so many occasions of big match.

The West Indies were not without a few bumps on the road to the semi-finals — back-to-back defeats in the final matches of the group stage sealed a net run rate finish. It's an inconsistency that's a worry but it's necessary to keep in mind what knockout cricket does to teams.

Key Players to keep an eye on

 Whether Matthews takes Perry out early or whether he can get him to stay, West Indies completely change the game; if he can not get him to stay in Australia, their total might be impossible. In the middle order, Ashleigh Gardner's battering and middle-stick ability to defeat no-ball bowlers could be just the things Stafanie Taylor would require to run down anyone, particularly Gardner, who has the power to take any match off the board in a matter of minutes. 

Conditions demand what?

Surface tonight will be key to the game. West Indies, needing wickets soon, cannot afford to allow top order in for the match to take a turn for the worse in case the pace and carry get early work, and Australia's top order gets in. Both Kim Garth and the Australian middle-order seamers will provide the side with firepower to neutralise any early support, while King's leg spin is an ace that can throw wobbles for any middle-order batsman in the middle of the score. Whichever side of the toss it is, they will have to carefully consider if they should bat or chase in order to maximise their strengths against such short-boundaries on a pitch like this.

The Numbers Favour Australia — But Anything Can Happen

It's Australia that dominates the statistics (rightly), as they have been so much in yesterday's tournament. However, things are different in the semi-finals. The game is distorted by pressure. Thank you to the batsman for one brilliant over, the fielder for one catch he didn't see coming and the bowler for the wrong kind of shot, and hello to the match! They will need Matthews, Dottin, Campbelle and Taylor to play in harmony on the same night for the West Indies. Three in tandem is a startling four, and they can make life truly uncomfortable for Australia.

The method will be clinical and composed, for Australia. They are not afraid and do not pounce on the game like a cat on a mouse. Molineux has had a great overnight campaign, exemplifying how to win tournaments throughout; after being dragged through this year's match at the same point last night, hunger will be alive in that group for tonight to avoid that torture again.

Conclusion

It's a battle composed of a team riding high on a vehicle and a team trying to ignite the spark at the right time. Cricket at this level goes to the man or woman who prepares, works well as a team and has the requisite level of nerve, and Australia have two and a half at their disposal tonight. But, West Indies possess the firepower and the temperament to do this much more than just on paper — and can make a shock in their day.

The prediction is that Australia will beat West Indies comfortably, but the race will be tight and they will need to play well to hold on and see the game through.Whether you decide to read the match previews, player profiles, or tournament read via Reddy Anna.
