India will lock horns with the Southern Stars in the semi-final of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup on Thursday.Australia has been India's bogey team in recent years but Ghosh is confident that Meg Lanning's team is a beatable one. "Australia are beatable, in our last series we beat them and we have also done it before.

They are a strong team but we can beat them," Ghosh said on the eve of their all-important semi-final at Newlands, Cape Town."We are trying to improve our mindset.

Everyone has the game but the team that is mentally strong will win. We have been working on that," Ghosh added. Australia have been a dominant force in the format since winning the last edition in 2020 at home.

In the last 22 months, Australia have lost just one T20I and that defeat came against India away from home via a Super Over.
