ICC Women's World Cup 2025 - Qualification scenario:
Matches remaining - New Zealand, Bangladesh
While India have their back against the wall, they are still in a strong position to qualify for the next round. They will be entering the semifinals if they beat New Zealand and Bangladesh in their remaining games. Even if they beat New Zealand in their next game, they will be all but assured of a place in the top four.
In case India lost to New Zealand but beat Bangladesh, they would qualify if England beat the White Ferns before that. In that case, India would qualify on the virtue of more wins.
New Zealand Women:
Out of all the five teams, New Zealand arguably have the toughest fixtures. They will be facing India and England in their remaining league games. Their next game against India is virtually a knockout. New Zealand also have their fate in their own hands. They will qualify for the next round if they win their remaining matches.
In the second scenario, they would want Sri Lanka to beat Bangladesh and then the latter to register an unlikely win over India.
Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan:
Matches remaining for Sri Lanka: Bangladesh, Pakistan
Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan are occupying the bottom three spots in the points table and all of them are in a must-win territory. The loser of the upcoming match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh will become the first team to be knocked out of the ongoing ICC Women's World Cup 2025.
In case, India beat New Zealand, Bangladesh will have to register a big win over Sri Lanka to improve their net run-rate. They will be facing India in their final league game and it will make the equation straightforward for them.
They do not have their fate in their own hands anymore. Both of them will be knocked out if India beat New Zealand.
