CWC: Australia take on struggling Pak Women

Colombo, Oct 7 (UNI) When you talk about dominance in women’s cricket, few teams can match the sheer consistency of Australia Women, and their upcoming ICC WWC clash with Pakistan Women at the R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium tomorrow is yet another case study in one-sided excellence.
Australia enters this encounter having never lost to Pakistan in 16 ODIs, a record that speaks volumes not just of skill but of mental toughness, preparation, and the ability to perform under pressure. In this tournament, they have continued that form, winning five of their last six ODIs and kicking off their campaign with an emphatic 89-run victory over New Zealand Women.
As far as the X-factor, Australia has it in abundance. Beth Mooney has been in sublime touch, accumulating 233 runs in just three innings during the recent series against India, averaging over 116. Her ability to construct an innings while keeping the scoreboard ticking is the hallmark of a true match-winner.
