Team India defeated Sri Lanka by 82 runs to boost their Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 semi-final hopes.
The Indian women’s cricket team defeated Sri Lanka handily to maintain their hopes of moving on to the T20 World Cup 2024 semifinals. India hammered the islanders by 82 runs, with skipper Harmanpreet being the team’s main wrecker at bat. India’s Net Run Rate increased to +0.576 as a consequence, placing it second behind Australia, the group leader. Even though India is ranked second, they still need to defeat Australia in order to guarantee their place in the last four. Things will probably become quite tough for them after a loss.
India’s prospects of qualifying for the semi-finals are dependent on their performance against Australia in their group round encounter. India now has a higher NRR than New Zealand.
If Australia Beat India:
India’s aspirations of making the semi-finals will be at the mercy of other nations if they lose to Australia. With four victories from four matches, Australia will advance as the group’s top seed to the last four. Australia would have to defeat Pakistan in order for India to advance as runners-up, while New Zealand would have to lose both of their remaining group matches against Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
Harmanpreet Kaur & Co. should advance to the next round if Pakistan’s NRR is less than India’s, given that Pakistan also scored four points throughout the process. While they are in a similar situation to India, New Zealand’s NRR is now far lower. They have little chance of unseating Harmanpreet’s team.
