Kerr suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in early 2024, with Chelsea manager Sonia Bompastor stating that the Australian was not expected back in first-team action until February or March.
The youngster displayed goalkeeping masterclass in the shoot-out, saving all four of Pakistan’s attempts after the match was drawn 1-1 in regulation time.
Defending champions India will now face off against China, who beat Pakistan in the first semi-final.
United States international Fishel sustained a similar injury during training with her national side in February last year.
Both Kerr and Fishel will not train with the Blues' first-team squad while in Portugal, but will instead continue on their individual rehabilitation programmes.
