Australian skipper Alyssa Healy produced one of the finest innings of her career, lighting up the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam with a breathtaking century during the Women’s World Cup 2025 clash against India. Chasing a mammoth target of 331 runs, Healy displayed her trademark aggression and composure to keep Australia’s hopes alive in a high-pressure contest.

Right from the start, Healy looked in complete control, finding the middle of the bat with precision and punishing anything loose. Her cover drives, flicks, and lofted shots over extra cover had the crowd in awe, as she raced past fifty in quick time. She then carried her momentum forward to reach her century in style, drawing loud cheers from both sets of fans who appreciated the masterclass unfolding before them.

Healy’s knock was a perfect mix of timing and temperament. She anchored the innings beautifully even as India’s bowlers tried to apply pressure through tight lines. Her footwork against the spinners and ability to find gaps at will made her stand out on a track that had earlier tested the Indian batters.

As the chase progressed, Ashleigh Gardner joined her captain at the crease, and the duo ensured that the scoreboard kept ticking. The pair rotated strike effectively and put away bad deliveries, frustrating the Indian bowlers. Their partnership steadied the innings after early wickets and placed Australia firmly in control of the chase.

Healy’s authoritative presence at the crease inspired confidence in her teammates. Every boundary she hit was met with applause, and her body language reflected the determination of a leader refusing to back down against a formidable Indian side.

After dominating the Indian attack for more than two hours, Healy’s magnificent knock finally came to an end on 142 runs. The dismissal came courtesy of a stunning catch by Sneh Rana, who leapt to her left at backward point to complete a brilliant grab. Healy’s departure drew appreciation from both sets of fans as she walked off to a standing ovation — a moment that captured the respect she commands across the cricketing world.
