In a candid discussion at a Cricket Australia sponsorship event in Sydney, Australia captain Alyssa Healy expressed anticipation of rigorous competition from rivals England and India at this year's ICC Women's Cricket World Cup.

Healy outlined her aspirations for Australia to defend their title, a feat not achieved in 37 years, highlighting England and India as primary threats. As her team heads to India and Sri Lanka, Healy remains cautious, recognizing England and India as formidable opponents.

Recovering from a foot injury sustained at last year's T20 World Cup, Healy aims for a comeback during the Australia A series. The experienced keeper has adjusted her techniques to extend her career, focusing on efficiency and injury prevention.
