Happy faces were seen in the Australian dugout after their comfortable victory over Sri Lanka in the Women's T20 World Cup 2024 on Saturday.
Captain Alyssa Healy was quite relaxed as she saw her team win by 6 wickets in a low-scoring campaign opener for the defending champions.
Healy was even seen teasing her vice-captain Tahlia McGrath in the dugout when the camera focussed on the duo during Australia's run chase.
"You would think that the captain shouldn’t be the pest," the female commentator said on air as Healy played with MacGrath's ears which was also seen by fans on the giant screen at the Sharjah stadium.
Healy's husband Mitchell Starc, Australia men's cricket team fast bowler, was also seen cheering for the Aussies from the stands.
