Australia currently top Group B of the event as they defeated Ireland by nine wickets at Guyana's Providence Stadium today.

Ireland chose to bat first but Australia's disciplined bowling held them to 93-6.

Bismah Maroof scored 53 runs from 49 balls as Nida Dar added 52 from 35 balls to Pakistan's total.

Fumbles cost India five chances but a strong finish saw them keep the opposition to 133-7.

Pakistan mistakes led to India having a 10-0 opening to their batting as Pakistan were penalised twice for running on the protected area of the pitch.

Indian star Mithali Raj scored 56 off 47 balls as her partnership with Smriti Mandhana added 73 for the first wicket in 9.3 overs.
