Australia's all-conquering cricket women have been given a wake-up call with their World Cup defence approaching as India handed Alyssa Healy's side their biggest ever defeat in one-day international annals in Punjab.
Healy herself admitted the champions had been "outplayed" in New Chandigarh on Wednesday (Thursday AEST) as they suffered a 102-run loss, a thumping so heavy that it even surpassed the Australians' previous record 92-run defeat to England in Birmingham 52 years ago.
