BIZARRE: Skipper has faith in aussie world cup strength in depth - What They Never Told You

Alyssa Healy says she wasn't concerned by Australia's seeming top-order frailty in their first two World Cup wins and is confident in their batting strength-in-depth as they face their biggest test yet against hosts India at Visakhapatnam.

Healy's side won their opening two matches thanks to stunning rescue knocks from Ash Gardner, against New Zealand, and Beth Mooney, versus Pakistan, aided both times by some dogged assistance from the lower-order.

But with India also having faced their own batting trials and tribulations, coming off a shock defeat against South Africa at the same Visakhapatnam venue on Thursday, Healy expects both the two favourites' big guns to start delivering at Sunday's sell-out.
