At the midway point of the group stage, here is how the 10 teams are placed in the battle for semi-finals berths

Australia are well on track after they made it two from two when they thrashed New Zealand on Tuesday to put a foot in the semi-finals. They will want to put solidify that position when they play Pakistan next up, while a blockbuster showdown with India looms as their final group game, where Harmanpreet Kaur’s team could be playing to keep their tournament alive.

India are officially back after their thumping win over Sri Lanka that helped repair the damage done to their NRR at the start of the tournament. However, their fate is not entirely in their own hands. If they beat Australia in their final group game in Sharjah, and New Zealand lose to either Sri Lanka or Pakistan, they are through. If New Zealand win both games, it will come down to NRR – and New Zealand would have the advantage of playing last, knowing what they need. If India lose to Australia, and New Zealand lose one game, it is again down to NRR. In the unlikely event NZ lose twice, India would go through.

Pakistan started the tournament with a brilliant win over Sri Lanka but were brought back to earth with a loss to India a couple of days later. Their semi-finals hopes are alive but to qualify, they will likely need to upset two higher-ranked opponents in Australia and New Zealand. On their side is their decent NRR however, and if both New Zealand and India drop upcoming games, they could squeeze in with just one more win.
Played 2 | Won 1 | Lost 1 | NRR -0.050
Games remaining:
Oct 12 v Sri Lanka (Sharjah)
 
Oct 14 v Pakistan (Dubai)
New Zealand’s dream start to the tournament saw them thump India by 58 runs, but they came crashing down to earth in a 60-run loss to Australia that severely hurt their NRR and saw them drop behind Pakistan on the table. It’s not all doom and gloom for the White Ferns, however, who have lower-ranked rivals in Sri Lanka and Pakistan left to play. They will go into both as favourites and two wins would put them in a very good position to qualify for semi-finals.

Oct 12 v New Zealand (Sharjah)
Sri Lanka arrived at the World Cup full of confidence and dreaming of a maiden finals berth after winning their first Asia Cup in July. But three consecutive heavy losses to Pakistan, Australia and India have dashed those hopes, with a consolation win the only remaining prize on offer for Chamari Athapaththu’s team.
Played 3 | Won 2 | Lost 1 | NRR 1.527
Games remaining:
Oct 12 v Bangladesh (Dubai)
South Africa’s hopes of finishing on top of the group likely rested on defeating England, who have two games to play, but they could still nab the No.1 seeding if Heather Knight’s team drop one of their remaining games. The Proteas got a massive NRR boost after thrashing Scotland, putting them in a very strong position to qualify for semi-finals.
Played 2 | Won 2 | Lost 0 | NRR 0.653
Games remaining:
Oct 13 v Scotland (Sharjah)
 
Oct 15 v West Indies (Dubai)
England’s win over South Africa means they have one foot in the semi-finals already with a five-day break between matches. They’ll want to finish on top of the table and give themselves the – theoretical – easier path to the decider, and should be about to account for local rivals Scotland. The game against West Indies could prove a bit trickier.
Played 2 | Won 1 | Lost 1 | NRR 1.154
Games remaining:
Oct 10 v Bangladesh (Sharjah)
 
Oct 15 v England (Dubai)
The Windies will be ruing their big first-up loss to South Africa, but Hayley Matthews’ team did get a large NRR boost from their victory over Scotland. But the path to the semi-finals will require them to knock off the in-form England – and hope Bangladesh can upset the Proteas.
Played 2 | Won 1 | Lost 1 | NRR -0.125
Games remaining:
Oct 10 v West Indies (Sharjah)
 
Oct 12 v South Africa (Dubai)
Bangladesh started the tournament on a dream note when they knocked off Scotland in their opening game to secure their first T20 World Cup win in a decade. Their defeat to England took the wind out of their sails somewhat, and semi-finals will require something special but they will be out to cause in upset or two in their remaining games.
Played 3 | Won 0 | Lost 3 | NRR -2.8671
Games remaining:
Oct 13 v England (Sharjah)
Scotland’s first women’s T20 World Cup campaign has so far produced three heavy defeats, but Kathryn Bryce’s team have one more chance to seal an historic first win at the tournament.
