Alyssa Healy was earlier hobbling back to the pavilion against Pakistan in the last game. So far the board has not made any official decision regarding the return of Healy to the national side-
Once we have more information based on her assessment and scans tomorrow, her availability for the remainder of the tournament will be clearer.
Meanwhile, Australia’s injury list is increasing as Tayla Vlaeminck is set to miss the remainder of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup due to a dislocated shoulder. Heather Graham has been approved as a replacement in the squad.
