Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 Semi-Finals

The Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 has reached its decisive stage, with all semi-final matchups now confirmed. Australia will take on the West Indies for a place in the final, while England will face South Africa. In this article, we break down the match schedule, give a short overview of each pairing, and highlight the key points worth keeping in mind before watching or betting on the Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 Semi-Finals.

Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 Semi-Finals: Group Standings

The Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 runs from June 12 to July 5, 2026. The tournament is being hosted by England. It is worth noting that the semi-finals will be played at The Oval in London, while the final is scheduled for July 5 at the iconic Lord’s.

In 2026, the tournament format was expanded: 12 national teams took part, split into two groups of six. During the group stage, each team played five matches, with the top two sides from each group moving on to the playoffs.

As the table shows, Australia comfortably finished first in Group A, while South Africa came in second with four wins and eight points. India picked up six points, but that was not enough to make it through to the semi-finals.

In Group B, England went through the group stage unbeaten, while the West Indies edged out Sri Lanka thanks to a better Net Run Rate. Both teams finished with six points, but the West Indies had the stronger NRR.

Interesting fact: Australia head into the semi-final as the most successful team in the history of the Women’s T20 World Cup. The side already has six titles to its name, with the most recent one coming in 2023.

Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 Semi-Finals: Schedule

The first match will take place on June 30, with Australia facing the West Indies at The Oval in London. The match is set to start at 14:30 local time, BST. The second Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 Semi-Finals will be played at the same venue on July 2, when England meets South Africa. That game is scheduled to get underway at 18:30 BST.

The winners of these two clashes will move on to the tournament’s showpiece match. Once again, the Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 final is scheduled for July 5 and will be played at the legendary Lord’s.

By the way, England have an interesting bit of history behind them heading into the semi-final. The team has never lost a Cricket World Cup in either T20 or ODI format when hosting the tournament.
