The ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 is now in full swing, with thirteen matches already completed. In the most recent contest, defending champions Australia beat host-nation India in a thrilling three-wicket victory in Visakhapatnam on October 12. 

Captain Alyssa Healy led from the front, guiding her team to their third win of the tournament. For India, the loss marked their second defeat in this edition of the World Cup.

The result has significant implications in the points table, as teams jostle for positions ahead of the semi-finals. Australia’s win consolidates their strong start, while India will look to bounce back in their upcoming matches. Fans and analysts alike are keeping a close eye on standings, net run rates and the battle for the top four spots, which will determine which teams advance to the knockout stage.

Let’s take a look at the current points table with more 15 matches left in the group stage of the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025.

The top four teams will qualify for the semi-finals.

Skipper Alyssa Healy unfurled a hundred touched with genius and grit as Australia achieved the highest-ever successful run chase in women's ODI to register a three-wicket win over India in their World Cup match here on Sunday.

Healy who scored 142 runs off 107 balls, toyed with the Indian bowlers as the seven-time champions ended up with 331 for seven, after the hosts garnered an impressive 330 riding on fifties by Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal.

The previous highest successful run chase was Sri Lanka getting past 302 against South Africa in 2024.

With this win, the Australians went to the top of the table with seven points, while India remained in third with four points.

Healy’s batting was all about pristine ball hitting, a result of her wonderfully supple wrists, allowing the right-hander to place the ball precisely in the desired areas.

Amidst the Australian domination, left-arm spinner Sri Charani bowled an excellent spell (10-1-41-3) that gave India, who are without a sixth bowling option, a semblance of control in the middle overs.

Healy’s dismissal, perhaps, kicked up some nerves in the Australian camp as they lost Gardner, Tahlia McGrath, and Sophie Molineux to slip to 303 for seven from 265 for three. But Perry (47 not out) returned to apply the finishing touches.

Earlier, India woke up from their batting slumber through classy fifties by Mandhana and Rawal to post a 300-plus total.

Asked to bat first, India were served well by openers Mandhana (80, 66 balls) and Rawal (75, 96 balls) on a pitch that had little assistance for the Australian bowlers.

The genesis of India's batting charge was in the 155-run opening stand between Mandhana and Rawal in just 24.3 overs, also atoning for their previous individual and joint failures against Sri Lanka, Pakistan and South Africa.

Mandhana’s dismissal briefly allowed Australia to make a comeback, getting rid of Rawal, skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, and Harleen Deol. India were suddenly at 240 for four in the 38th over, and on the verge of squandering the hitherto acquired momentum. But Richa Ghosh and Jemimah Rodrigues added 54 runs for the fifth wicket to push India closer to the 300-run mark.

However, Ghosh holed out in the deep off pacer Sutherland (5/40), who used a slew of back-of-hand slower balls to bag some quick wickets towards the end.

The next three/four matches for each team in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 are as follows:

• England will face Pakistan, India, and Australia.
