India Women vs Australia Women match in the second Semi-final of the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025 started in great fashion, where the Aussie skipper Alyssa Healy made a comeback from the injury. Despite getting an early life, Healy was dismissed cheaply, as Kranti Gaud once again won the battle against the Aussie right-handed opening batter.

Australia Women won the toss in the second Semi-final on Thursday (October 30) and chose to bat first at DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. The initial overs of the match delivered some great moments. In the third over of the match, Alyssa Healy provided a good chance for the hosts in Renuka Singh's over, but the Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur dropped the chance at mid-off. Everyone knew how cruel it could be while Healy was struggling to find her touch on her comeback.

Kranti Gaud dismissed Alyssa Healy

At the end of the fifth over, the clouds dominated the ground, while rain started, and the on-field umpires took little time before beginning the next over in the rain, as it was the delay from the floodlights, which required them to be completely on. While Gaud continued her spell, she dismissed Healy on the first delivery of that over, as Healy chopped on her wicket. Healy was dismissed for only five runs after facing 15 balls. Out of their five meetings in the WODI, Gaud dismissed Healy four times.
