That brings today's live blog to an end. We wish you a good night from all of us at Sportskeeda. Thank you for joining us. We hope to see you again on Sunday. Till then, good bye.
Mithali Raj: "Harman's innings was exceptional. bowlers have done really well. This unit looks compact now. Winning a semi-finals against Australia is a huge achievement. We have players now who are of international standard. They are standing up every game. The top order is scoring when it's actually needed."
Meg Lanning: "We couldn't stop her. Congratulations to India. We didn't get the start we wanted, lost too many wickets through the middle. We haven't really nailed a full game. We've had glimpses with the ball."
Harmanpreet says, "I'm feeling proud. My innings was only worth it because they were restricted. I'm looking forward to the finals. England are a good side and we will definitely give them a fight. It's always good when you score runs for your team and I'm very happy. When we were started from Bombay, we wanted to reach the semi-final, then reach the final."
"I would like to thank the support staff and all the fans for their support."
Chasing 282 in 42 overs was never going to be easy. Three quick wickets, including those of Meg Lanning and Nicole Bolton, did not help the cause in any way. However, the Aussies just refused to give up.
Elyse Villani joined Ellyse Perry in the middle and the duo showed how to forge the perfect partnership. As Villani went through with her attacking shots, Perry complemented her by playing the role of an anchor. For a moment it looked like the duo would run away with the match.
However, Villani was finally dismissed after having scored a 58-ball 75. Perry, as well, soon joined her in the pavilion. With wickets falling at regular intervals, Alex Blackwell decided to give it a final flurry.
She batted fearlessly and took on the Indians. Singlehandedly, she kept her team in the match with a terrific 56-ball 90. However, it was always going to be a little too late.
For India, Jhulan Goswami and Shikha Pandey bowled excellently while Deepti Sharma picked up three crucial wickets.
Deepti Sharma finally gets the better of Blackwell. It's all over in Derby. Mithali Raj jumps up in joy and joins in on the team huddle. India make it to their second ever final, the first in the last 12 years.
And another one goes down! Eight wickets down for Australia. As Ian Bishop says on air, 'Goswami can do no wrong today.' Blackwell hammered a drive straight but Goswami gets a finger on it as the ball ricochets and uproots the bails at the non-striker's end. Jonassen has to go.
WICKET! The Aussies are reeling here in Derby. The ball was wide and outside off but it turned viciously. Gardner was looking to hit it through point but ends up giving a dolly to Mithali Raj at cover.
Another one goes down. India take another step towards Lord's. Goswami pitches the ball up, Healy trying to get up and over, hits straight to Pandey at mid-wicket. Australia 148/6 after 28.3 overs.
