India can get to a maximum of 12 points should they win all their remaining games in the Women’s World Cup. Mithali Raj and Co. have games left against table leaders Australia and South Africa, alongside Bangladesh and England. Should India win all four games, they will qualify for the semi-finals, potentially as one of the top two teams.
West Indies have a similar record as of India, but India’s net run-rate puts them ahead of Stafanie Taylor’s side. Mithali Raj and Co.just have to better West Indies’ record to make sure of a final four berth. Should they be level on points, net run-rate will come into effect and India will hope that they maintain their advantage.
