Captains at the toss

Harmanpreet Kaur, India captain: Pitch looks better than what we had in the last game. Same XI. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. It's about how you bounce back. We were there in the game for 95 overs, lots of positives for us.

 Alyssa Healy, Australia captain: We're going to bowl. Got dewy last evening while training—just one change. Molineux is back and Wareham misses out. At some point during World Cups, you just need to get what needs to be done and get the win. My first time back in Vizag in a long time. It should be a great atmosphere. Girls are pumped for that.
