Australia underlined their status as the premier international sports team on the planet by outclassing England to win the Women's World Cup.

The Australians shattered records in Christchurch on their way to adding the 50-over title to the T20 World Cup and Ashes crowns they already hold.

Alyssa Healy crashed an astonishing 170 from 138 balls, the highest score in either a women's or men's World Cup final. Her partnership of 160 with Rachael Haynes and Australia's total of 356-5 are also women's final bests.

Highest individual scores in an ODI WC final:

• 170 - Alyssa Healy in 2022

• 149 - Adam Gilchrist in 2007

• 140* - Ricky Ponting in 2003

• 138* - Viv Richards in 1979

England's Anya Shrubsole was caught by Ashleigh Gardner to seal victory for Australia in the Women's World Cup final in Christchurch, New Zealand.
