The stage is set for a blockbuster showdown as England take on Australia in the final of the 10th edition of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup at Lord’s on Sunday, July 5. Both sides have been flawless throughout the tournament, and it feels fitting that two unbeaten teams will contest the ultimate prize. With anticipation building, here are three key stats that perfectly frame this clash.

That’s a spotless 100% record at home.
