Both the semi-finalists of Group B of the 10th edition of the Women’s T20 World Cup (ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026) have been decided. The journey of defending champion New Zealand has ended. New Zealand is out after a shameful defeat against England in the match held on Saturday. England and West Indies have reached the top-4 from this group.
3 players retired
With this defeat at the hands of England, the international career of three great New Zealand players ended. Sophie Devine, Suzie Bates and Lee Tahuhu have retired from international cricket. New Zealand wanted to bid farewell to these three greats with a win, but on the contrary the team had to suffer a shameful defeat.
After the match, players of New Zealand and England gave guard of honor to the three retired players. During this time, Sophie Devine, Suzie Bates and Lee Tahuhu had moist eyes. All three great players were emotional.

Team India will secure its place in the semi-finals by defeating Australia, then even if South Africa reaches 8 points by defeating Bangladesh, then India’s net run rate (+2.268) is better. But if Australia wins and so does South Africa, then India’s T20 World Cup 2026 journey will be over.
