Australia Women beat Barbados Women by 9 wickets Meg Lanning 32(20) | Hayley Matthews 18(13) Alana King 4-8(4) | Shanika Bruce 2-7(4)
Dominant. Destructive. Supreme.Don't know how to descirbe this performance from Australia. They are through to the semis now. The damage was done by the bowlers to bundle out Barbados' batters to a paltry score of 64 and the Aussie batters chased it comfortably as expected. Bruce got rid of Mooney in the second over but Lanning played some lovely shots to keep the scoreboard ticking. She took on Deandra Dottin and smacked 25 runs before Alyssa Healy used her feet to attack the spinners, and eventually, it turned out to be a walk in the park for both batters
8.1 Shakera Selman to Meg Lanning, FOUR! DONE AND DUSTED! Australia crush Barbados by 9 wickets in this contest. Back of a length on the middle and off, Lanning swipes across the line powerfully behind square on the on-side, runs away and picks out the ropes. Barbados have a lot of thinking to do with that heavy loss now.
8.1 Shakera Selman to Alyssa Healy, WIDE! Strays that one way down the leg-side, the keeper couldn't collect it either neatly as she gets a glove to slow it down, they pick up a bye.
Shakera Selman, right-arm medium, comes into the attack
Elliot was trying to toss the ball up but Healy uses her feet well and played two lovely shots

7.4 Keila Elliott to Alyssa Healy, FOUR MORE! Easy as it gets for Healy. Good length on the outside off, she's down the track again and neatly lofts it over the extra-cover region, that picks out the ropes for the second time. Just 4 needed now!
7.3 Keila Elliott to Alyssa Healy, FOUR! That's the vintage Healy we all know of. Tossed up delivery, length on the middle and off, shimmies down the track and hammers it down to long-on for a boundary.
7.2 Keila Elliott to Meg Lanning, that's a long-hop but turns away just wide of Lanning as she had to reach for it, cuts it down to long-off for one.

Kelia Elliot, right-arm, leg break, comes into the attack
Just free-flowing batting from Healy. She was happy to see off Matthews in her previous over but, on that occasion, she smacked a cover drive and executed the reverse sweep to perfection
