New Zealand into T20 World Cup semis after Pakistan all out for 56 to make the semi-finals
After 20 games over 13 days, we now have our semi-finalists in the Women's T20 World Cup.
West Indies became the final team to book their spot in the last four by defeating England by six wickets to top Group B on net run-rate. They are joined by South Africa, New Zealand and defending champions Australia.
BBC Sport gives you all the key information, including when the matches start and how to follow all the action.
Thursday, 17 October: Semi-final 1 – Australia v South Africa (Dubai, 15:00 BST)
Friday, 18 October: Semi-final 2 – West Indies v New Zealand (Sharjah, 15:00 BST)
The only unbeaten side in the tournament, Group A winners and holders Australia will take on Group B runners-up South Africa who finished level with England on six points, but progressed on net run-rate.
West Indies, winners in 2016, will be full of confidence after getting the better of Heather Knight's England in a must-win final group game. They face Group A runners-up New Zealand, who progressed with three wins, including a pivotal success over India.
The semi-final winners will meet in the final on Sunday, 20 October in Dubai.
Play again starts at 15:00 BST.
The winners will take home $2.34 million (£1.756m), an increase from $1m in 2023.
The runners-up earn $1.17 million (£878,000).
Both teams will face 20 overs unless they are bowled out beforehand or the team batting second reaches their target before then.
Each innings will commence with a six-over powerplay where only two fielders are allowed outside the 30-yard circle. The powerplay is designed to give the batting team more freedom to score boundaries by using the gaps in the field, as a result of the restrictions.
Teams have two reviews per innings. To request a review, players must make a ‘T’ shape with their hands within 15 seconds of the delivery.
A ‘stop-clock’ rule means the fielding team must start a new over within 60 seconds of the previous one ending and they have to start the final over within 75 minutes or they have to bring an extra fielder within the 30-yard circle.
If a match is tied, a super over will be played to decide who wins (each team will face six balls – highest score wins). If the super over is tied as well, then subsequent super overs will be played to determine the winning team.
If a match is halted due to poor weather conditions or other factors, the DLS (Duckworth-Lewis-Stern) method will be used to determine the number of runs the team batting second requires.
A reserve day has been agreed for the semi-finals and final.
A minimum of 10-overs-per-side constitutes a match.
There will be ball-by-ball commentary on BBC Sounds and BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra of both semi-finals and the final.
That commentary, plus live text updates and in-play video clips, will be available on the BBC Sport website and app.
There will also be Test Match Special podcasts available on BBC Sounds.
You can also follow regular coverage on the BBC Cricket Instagram, external and WhatsApp, external accounts.
The tournament is available to watch live in the UK on Sky Sports.
