Australia have seen off a spirited India to remain perfect at the Cricket World Cup, a result that has boosted New Zealand's semifinal hopes.
Tournament favourites Australia earned their fifth win from as many games after chasing down their target of 278 with three balls and six wickets to spare at Eden Park, recording the highest chase in World Cup history.
Captain Meg Lanning made 97 and Alyssa Healy 72 as Australia locked in a semifinal place.
The victory means India stay level with the White Ferns on four points with two games remaining, and the White Ferns will remain in the semifinal hunt until at least their final game against Pakistan, regardless of their result against England tomorrow.
India laid down a challenge when they made 277-7 after being asked to bat in a match which always was going to be high-scoring on a fresh but flat pitch.
