India and England look to maintain unbeaten run

India and England feature in the showcase match of Tuesday’s action at the ICC Women’s World Cup when they face-off at North Sydney Oval.

A match-winning innings from Anjum Chopra provided India with victory the last time these two sides met at a World Cup, back in 2005, and she is again expected to be a key player today.

England, who defeated Sri Lanka on Saturday by 100 runs, despite a scrappy performance, will be hopeful of continuing its winning run against India having defeated it 4-0 last year.

In Group A, Australia will be hoping to get its campaign back on track when it faces South Africa at Newcastle.

Karen Rolton’s side, who suffered a defeat to New Zealand on Sunday in a rain-affected match, will be desperate to record its first win of the tournament, while Sunette Loubser will be asking for a better batting performance from her South African side after being bowled out for just 116 against the West Indies on Sunday.

In the other match of the day, the two unbeaten sides in Group A, New Zealand and West Indies, play at Bankstown.
