Australia Women obliterated Bangladesh to maintain their unbeaten run the 2025 Women’s World Cup. Captain Alyssa Healy smeared her second successive century after bowlers collectively restricted Bangladesh to a modest total.

Here, we take a look at the highlights of the 17th match of the 2025 Women’s World Cup between Australia Women and Bangladesh Women, as it panned out at the VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Thursday, October 16.

Sobhana Mostary drags Bangladesh Women to 198

Bangladesh Women batted first and accrued just 198-9 from 50 overs, with middle-order batter Sobhana Mostary herself chipping in with 66* off those runs off 80 balls with nine elegant boundaries. Opening batter Rubya Haider also cracked 44 off 59 at the top after the early fall of Fargana Hoque to Megan Schutt in the ninth over.

After reaching 73-1 in 17 overs, Australia spinners Ashleigh Gardner (2-48) and Alana King (2-18) frolicked through Bangladesh’s middle-order by picking up four wickets between them. Annabel Sutherland (2-41) and Georgia Wareham (2-22) also picked up two wickets each to restrict Bangladesh’s resistance in the final 15 overs of the innings.

Alyssa Healy and Litchfield rain down on Bangladesh bowlers

Australia Women's captain Alyssa Healy and her opening partner Phoebe Litchfield blazed their team to a comprehensive 10-wicket triumph with more than 25 overs to spare. Healy herself bludgeoned 113* off 77 balls with 20 boundaries to clatter her second successive century this 2025 Women’s World Cup.
