    Australia captain Tahlia McGrath: "Naturally it has been a chasing ground, it has felt a bit easier to bat under lights.

    "We're getting closer to the complete game. After each game when we've been reviewing we've had a little tweaking to do, hopefully get it right today and have momentum to take into the semi-finals."

    On Alyssa Healy's fitness: "It's a boring answer but we're just taking it day-by-day. She trained well yesterday but it is day-by-day."

    South Africa captain Laura Wolvaardt: "I probably would have had a bowl. It's a chasing ground and we've chased well at this tournament.

    "It's been nice to see contributions from the whole batting line-up, so hopefully more of that today.

    "It's a special day for us. I don't think we've finished top of the table at an ODI World Cup before, so it's a great opportunity for us, and it's an opportunity to test ourselves against the best in the world."
