Amy Jones is always ready to take on the Aussies at any time. She is a fierce competitor and has a never-give-up attitude.

England's Amy Jones made a quickfire 40 off 27 balls against India on Saturday.

England overcame a couple of rocky moments to prevail by 11 runs on Saturday and only need to avoid defeat to Pakistan today to secure top spot in their group and guarantee any contest between them and Australia could not take place until Sunday’s final in Cape Town.

But Jones, who made a quickfire 40 off 27 balls against India, accepts if England are to scoop a second title and first since the inaugural T20 World Cup in 2009 then they will likely have to get past Australia, who have already sealed top spot in the other group, at some point.

‘If we’re to win the World Cup, we need to beat India, Australia,’ she said. ‘For us, it’s not really important when we come up against them.

‘Obviously they’re an incredible side but it’s not something we’re thinking about, trying to avoid them.

‘We’ve come to win the World Cup and to do that we’re going to have to beat them at some stage. I guess the timing is not really important.’
