Two Aussie openers, Rachel Haynes and Alyssa Healy, have been batting since the beginning. The two made a pair of more than two hundred runs in the opening match. This is the eighth highest run partnership for the first wicket in the history of women’s ODI cricket.

Six of the Caribbean’s remaining six batsmen returned to the dressing room before touching the double digits. The other two could not get down to bat due to injuries. Five bowlers took one wicket each for Australia. Jess Johnson took two wickets.
