Women's World Cup while none from the Mithali Raj-led Indian side made the cut after their shock group exit. In the MVT released by ICC on Monday, four Australians made the team, including Player of the Tournament Alyssa Healy, the wicketkeeper-cum-opening batter who slammed a record 170 from just 138 balls in the final against England on Sunday.

During her epic knock against England, Healy became the player with the most runs in a single edition of a Women's World Cup (509). She not only went past New Zealand great Debbie Hockley's 25-year-old record, but also became the first woman cricketer to score 500 or more runs in a single edition of the tournament.
Australia's Alyssa Healy struck a sensational record-breaking century as her side powered to a 71-run victory over England to win the Women’s World Cup.
Healy believes the young talent coming through in Australian cricket means the world champions can continue to dominate the women's game for the next 10-15 years. Healy led the way with a record knock of 170 as Australia secured a seventh 50-overs World Cup title with what she described as a "near perfect" victory over holders England in Christchurch on Sunday.
