The Women’s T20 World Cup semi-finals take place this week with both matches live on Sky Sports.
Reigning champions Australia face South Africa on Thursday at 3pm in a repeat of last year’s final before West Indies meet New Zealand on Friday at 3pm with both matches live on Sky Sports.
Australia finished top of Group A with four wins from four while South Africa were runners-up in Group B after winning three and losing once to England.
New Zealand were beaten by Australia which meant they finished second after claiming victory in their other three matches as West Indies topped Group B on net run rate despite losing to South Africa.
The final will take place on Sunday October 20 at 3pm, live on Sky Sports.
What happened to England?
England were dumped out of the Women’s T20 World Cup following a tough six-wicket loss to a sensational West Indies.
West Indies were set 142 to win and progress to the semi-finals. Captain Hayley Matthews (50 off 38) in her 100th T20I and Qiana Joseph (52 off 38) played with electric intent, taking their side to 89-0 after 10 overs before their contributions ended with their side on 104-2.
With 40 runs still required, Deandra Dottin (27 from 19), Shemaine Campbelle (5), and Aaliyah Alleyne (6 from 4) did what they needed to do and stayed calm under the pressure, Alleyne hitting the winning runs to leave West Indies jubilant and England reeling from the shock defeat.
England were left to rue a poor performance in the field, five opportunities for wickets going begging as they dropped catches throughout West Indies’ innings to finish third in Group B and fail to qualify for the semi-finals.
