The Indian cricket team arrived in the Women's T20 World Cup semi-final against Australia, with nothing less than a victory in their minds. However, the Indian eves struggled to show the determination they were expected to on the field, producing some sloppy fielding efforts, including multiple catch drops. Seeing Indian players produce a forgettable outing on the field, fans took to social media to vent their frustration, slamming Harmanpreet Kaur and her girls for the ordinary day out on the field.

Beth Mooney emerged as the top-scoring batter for Australia, registering a half-century in 37 balls while the likes of Alyssa Healy (25), and Ashleigh Gardner (31) also contributed at the top. At the end, it was Meg Lanning whose unbeaten 49 took Australia to a solid total of 172/4.

Australia were not as good today as the scorecard reflects.India were sloppy in the field.Let Australia score with ease. Should've been 140-150.#CricketTwitter #T20WorldCup #INDvAUS

Extremely poor and sloppy fielding by the Indian women on field. They easily gave away 15-20 runs and these might be the deciding factor at the end of the match if India loses by the above run margin. All the best to the Girls :) Let's go India!! #INDWvsAUSW

Pretty sloppy fielding from #India today.... 172 is a huge target... But nevertheless our batting is yet to start... Let's hope for the best... Come on #India... #INDWvsAUSW #ICCWomensT20WorldCup

Poor fielding display by India

There was no swing on offer, making life a lot difficult for star pacer Renuka Thakur, whose first ball of the game was a half volley to Alyssa Healy (25 off 26) and she duly put it away.

Healy is usually the aggressor in her opening partnerships with Mooney but it wasn't the case on this
