How Team India Qualify for Semi-Final of Women’s World Cup: India had made a strong start in the Women’s World Cup. But then the break in his winning momentum felt equally tremendous. India defeated Sri Lanka and Pakistan in the first two matches. But then lost the next two matches to South Africa and Australia. After this back to back defeat, the question has now arisen that how will Team India reach the semi-finals?
Top 4 teams will get semi-final tickets
The Women’s World Cup is being played between 8 teams, out of which the top four teams will qualify for the semi-finals. Australia and England retain their positions in the top two. But, after losing two consecutive matches, the Indian team will now have to work hard to remain in the last two spots. They will have to shrug off defeat and join hands with victory.

Remained at number 3 even after defeat from SA and AUS
The good thing is that even after losing to South Africa and Australia, India’s position in the points tally of the Women’s World Cup has not wavered. He remains at number 3 as before. His better run rate of 0.682 has played a big role in this. But, in the future, not only will this run rate save him but he will also have to wear the garb of victory on the field. If this does not happen, the Indian team may be out of the race for the top four.
India’s equation for the semi-finals
Now the question is, what will the Indian women’s team have to do to reach the final of the World Cup? For this, he will have to win the matches against England on 19 October, New Zealand on 23 October and Bangladesh on 25 October at any cost. If India wins all these three matches then it can get direct entry in the semi-finals. This is because after winning these three matches, he will have 10 points. Apart from this, its run rate is better.
If Team India loses any two of the next matches, then its journey in the Women’s World Cup will end there. At the same time, if it wins only 2 out of the next 3 matches then the hopes will still remain intact. But, the performance of South Africa and New Zealand will also have to be kept an eye on. That means, in that case, the situation at number 8 may get stuck in a dilemma.
