South Africa to meet Australia in Women’s T20 World Cup semi-finals

2 min read

South Africa will keep their Women’s Twenty20 World Cup title hopes alive after booking their place in the semi-finals on a better run-rate to book a meeting with the defending champions Australia at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Thursday in a repeat of the last edition final.

The South Africans heaved a sigh of relief after the West Indies defeated England convincingly in the final match of Group B helping the Caribbean Islanders leapfrog England and South Africa to the top of the table, while six-time champions Australia and New Zealand qualified from Group A.

India were in the running until a nine-run loss ended their dream in Sharjah on Sunday. Still, a win for Pakistan would have taken them into the last four, but that was not to be. The only consolation

for India will be that they have qualified for the next World Cup, to be held in England in 2026.
