Winners for the 6th time!!
Australia lifted the T20 World Cup for the sixth time after beating South Africa in the final of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup in 2023. The world’s top-ranked team posted 156/6 with Beth Mooney top-scoring with 74*.
The Australian bowlers put up an excellent display, throttling the scoring rate of South Africa’s openers at the start of the reply, conceding just 22 runs in the Powerplay. Darcie Brown’s electric performance sent the in-form Tazmin Brits back to the dugout.
However, Laura Wolvaardt’s impressive display of big shots raised hopes for South Africa, as she quickly surged to 61 runs off 48 balls. Despite Wolvaardt’s efforts, Megan Schutt dismissed her and Jess Jonassen took care of the dangerous Chloe Tryon, making it difficult for South Africa to maintain the required rate of scoring in the death overs. As a result, Australia won the match by 19 runs, securing yet another addition to their trophy cabinet.
With this win, Australia has secured their sixth Women’s T20 World Cup title and achieved a ‘three-peat’ under the leadership of captain Meg Lanning, triumphing in 2018, 2020, and now in 2023. The Australian team, led by Meg Lanning, celebrated their victory in grand style as they lifted the trophy at Newlands in Cape Town.
At Newlands, there was an emotional atmosphere as the home crowd seized the chance to back their national team in a senior World Cup final, with a packed stadium. As the anthems played, Marizanne Kapp wasn’t the only one moved to tears, and the excitement was palpable as South Africa took the field after being invited to bowl first by Australian captain Meg Lanning.
Following the poignant national anthem performances, Australia’s opening batswomen calmly navigated the early overs, diffusing the charged atmosphere. However, the first breakthrough came when Nadine de Klerk caught out Alyssa Healy for 18, off the bowling of Kapp.
Ash Gardner was given a higher position in the batting order by Australia, preceding Meg Lanning. However, a remarkable first over from Shabnim Ismail limited the score to just 36/1 at the end of the Powerplay.
Nevertheless, the choice to advance Gardner up the order proved fruitful as she hit back-to-back sixes to increase the scoring rate.
Star Australian all-rounder, Beth Mooney, was named Player of the Tournament after her match-winning knock in the final, earning Australia their sixth T20 World Cup title.
