Women's World Cup Semi Final: India win toss, elect to bat first against Australia
Derby, July 20 (IBNS): In a clash with Australia, Indian captain Mithali Raj won the toss and elected to bat first in the semi final of Women's World Cup 2017 on Thursday.
The match has been reduced to 42 overs each side due to rain.
Last time, when the two teams met in the league stage of the tournament, Australia had the last smile.
Though India has a very poor record against the Aussies overall, the women in blue will look to get a victory to reach the final.
