Australia will play England and West Indies in their two warm-up outings before opening their campaign on October 5. Here is everything you need to know about the team at ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024
Winning a T20 World Cup for three straight editions is no mean feat, and only goes on to reflect the Aussies' persistent dominance in women's cricket. Before pipping hosts South Africa to the title in Cape Town last year, the Australian side emerged victors at home against India in 2020, and outclassed England in Antigua in 2018. All three titles came under Meg Lanning's leadership.
But the mantle has since passed on to Healy, who is doing a more than capable job herself. The six-time champions are entering the marquee event on the back of seven consecutive T20I wins, and it will take some doing for any side to displace them from the throne.
A total of 10 teams are participating in the event, that was supposed to take place in Bangladesh but was shifted to United Arab Emirates after political unrest in the sub-continental nation.
