India await after
England miss out without a ball bowledAustralia defied the elements and a spirited South African performance at the
Sydney Cricket Ground to scrape into the final of the Women’s Twenty20
World Cup with a win by five runs, much to the relief of local organisers who were desperate for the home team’s presence to help sell tickets to the Melbourne Cricket Ground final.
Earlier in the evening after India and England had their preceding semi-final washed out, there looked little chance that the second match could get the minimum 10 overs per side to reach a recognised result.
