Qualification Scenarios for Women's World Cup
AUS and SA already qualified for semis
PAK and BAN are out of contention.
Left with WI, IND, ENG and NZ only 2 can qualify.
WI has 7 pts , while other 3 has 6 pts.
IND
1. they have to win tomorrow vs SA to qualify
(IND will qualify with 8 pts)
2. even if their match gets washed out tmr they can still qualify as they have a better NRR than WI regardless who wins the other match
(IND will qualify with 7 pts, NZ has 6 pts and WI has 7 pts but lesser NRR)
3. if IND loses tmr they still stand a chance to qualify but they need to make sure ENG loses vs BD tmr within a certain margin as ENG has a better NRR currently
(WI with 7 pts and IND with 6pts will qualify)
ENG
1. they just win vs BD tmr and they will confirm their qualification
(ENG will qualify with 8 pts)
2. even if their match gets washed out tmr they can still qualify as they have a better NRR than WI regardless who wins the other match
(ENG will qualify with 7 pts, NZ has 6 pts and WI has 7 pts but lesser NRR)
3. if ENG loses tmr they still stand a chance to qualify but they need to make sure IND loses vs SA tmr margin doesn't matter as they have better NRR than IND
(WI with 7 pts and ENG with 6pts will qualify)
WI
1.they just need either IND or ENG(or both) to lose their match tmr else they have no chance
(WI qualifies with 7 pts while other team with 6 or 8 pts)
2. if rain washes out both matches tmr, then WI wont make it due to poor NRR, as they will be tied with IND and ENG with 7 pts in that case
NZ
1. They will need not just IND and ENG to lose their matches but also to lose them in a very high margin due to low NRR, basically they will need a miracle to qualify.
