Ahead of the fifth match of the series, the Australian team were presented with the ICC Women's Championship trophy, after winning the 2017–20 ICC Women's Championship tournament. In the sixth match, Australia beat England by 16 runs, to advance to the final along with India. In the final, Australia beat India by 11 runs to win the series, with Jess Jonassen taking her first five-wicket haul in a WT20I match.
