Many teams make the mistake of putting the Australia women's team on a pedestal when facing them because of their seven World Cup titles.

That is a mistake that almost comes naturally, given how dominant Australia have been in women's cricket and also in the ongoing showpiece, having gone unbeaten thus far.

However, Bosch reiterated that they will not make the same mistake.

The 32-year-old acknowledged Australia as a powerhouse but highlighted that they view them the same way they view the other six teams in the tournament.

"We approach every game in the same way and not play the country or the players or disregard any team or look too high at any team," Bosch told the media yesterday.
