New Delhi, Sept. 22 -- Australia captain Alyssa Healy said that ahead of their ICC Women's World Cup title defence, the team is in a "great spot" and it looks "well-balanced" with a group of youth and experience.

Defending champions Australia will be eyeing an unprecedented eighth World Cup crown, with captain Healy confident that the blend of fresh energy and proven experience in the squad can deliver once again on the biggest stage.

"Our group is incredibly well-balanced with plenty of youth to compliment the more experienced players and while for some it will be their first ODI World Cup, they've all had exposure to major tournaments and high-pressure series," Healy said in her column as quoted by the ICC.
