LONDON, June 28: Ellyse Perry oozed class and Ashleigh Gardner was all muscle as Australia notched up a smooth six-wicket win to knock an underwhelming India out of the ICC T20 Women's World Cup here on Sunday.
The defeat could well mean the end of Harmanpreet Kaur's time as India's T20 skipper.
Perry (56, 38b) who is playing her 10th World Cup, and Gardner (53 not out, 29b), added 100 runs for the fourth wicket as the six-time champions chased down 171 in 19 overs to enter the semifinals.
The Aussies (10 points) topped Group 1 with an all-win record, while 50-over champions India ended third with six points. (PTI)
