Tahlia McGrath shared an update on Alyssa Healys fitness ahead of Australias Womens World Cup match against South Africa on Saturday October 25 at Holkar Stadium Indore. Healy had missed the last game against England after suffering a minor calf injury during practice on October 19. Who captained Australia in Alyssa Healys absence? In Healys absence McGrath captained the team and Georgia Voll was added to the lineup. McGrath mentioned that Healy resumed training on Friday but the team will decide on her availability before the match begins. Midge is at training today. We havent finalised the playing eleven yet as shes still a bit of a day-by-day case. Well see how that pans out McGrath said in the pre-match press conference. Although Australia remain undefeated and have already qualified for the semifinals their journey hasnt been entirely smooth. In the match against England they struggled early at 24 for three before Ash Gardner’s 104 and Annabel Sutherland’s 98 guided them to victory. What more did Tahlia McGrath mention? McGrath mentioned that Australia can still improve in some areas but they have figured out ways to maintain their winning streak. Every game weve reviewed and identified small areas to improve. The most pleasing thing is that weve consistently found ways to win and I feel weve developed that belief as a group—that we can win from any position. Thats been a massive positive McGrath said. Of course there are still little elements in every game we want to improve. We’re still striving for what you might call the perfect game but overall Im really happy with how weve played our cricket and with our ability to find ways to win in this tournament McGrath added. Saturdays match is important as it will decide whether South Africa or Australia ends up first on the points table and earns a semifinal game against India.
