Stats: Australia at the 2009 Women's ODI World Cup

The 2009 Women's World Cup could be considered Australia's worst campaign in the tournament. They finished in the fourth position in the tournament that year. Before the 2009 World Cup, Australia had always finished amongst the top 3 in the tournament.

In 2009, Australia along with New Zealand, West Indies and South Africa made up Group A for the league stage. They began their campaign with a loss to New Zealand by 13 runs. They followed it up with two comfortable victories over South Africa (by 79 runs) and West Indies (by 47 runs) and qualified for the Super Six stage.

The Aussies began the Super Six stage with a loss against India by 16 runs and won their next two matches against Pakistan (by 109 runs) and England (by 8 wickets). This performance placed Australia fourth on the table at the end of the Super Six stage and helped them qualify for the third-place playoff.

In the third-place playoffs, the Aussies once again met India. Just like in the Super Six stage, they ended up on the losing side. India, chasing 143 runs, had won the match by three wickets.

Here's a look at some of the team's key stats for the Australian team at the 2009 Women's World Cup.
