With their continued participation hanging on the result India benefitted from some uncharacteristic lapses in the field to mount a late surge that saw 36 runs come from the final two overs. Chief beneficiary was skipper Harmanpreet Kaur who blasted 56 off just 27 balls (6x4, 3x6) It will take a record chase in World Cups for Australia if they are to chase this down. Chase it down they did - and how! Elysse Perry and Ash Gardner blasting a century partnership off just 57 balls. An Australian record World Cup chase and even an over to spare. A bad day for Indian fans in both London and Belfast - 'A Tale of Two Cities' - "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." The semi-final lineups confirmed as Australia v West Indies on Tuesday and England versus South Africa on Thursday.

A win for South Africa plus an Australian victory over India later today would see the Proteas into the semi-finals and India on the plane home. Well that's the first part of the equation complete. A very nervy win for South Africa and a gutsy defence of their moderate total by Bangladesh. Wickets off the first balls of each innings must be some sort of World Cup record you would imagine. The pitch is slow with a little bit of spin evident and the bounce is low, it will be interesting what Australia and India make of it later.

Kiwi openers add 70 but both gone in consecutive balls - Izzy Gaze to the last ball of the tenth over and Melie Kerr to the first of the eleventh. Disaster as Izzy Sharp drags on two balls later without scoring. Three maximums in a 14 ball 30 from Sophie Devine boosted the rate and better than a run-a-ball contributions from Brooke Halliday and Suzie Bates (19) carried the Kiwis to a respectable total. Not a given for England but they will be favourites to chase this down. Well how emphatic was that - an unbroken 128 run partnership between Danni Wyatt-Hodge and Sophia Dunkley seeing England to the win with almost three overs to spare. The end of the road for New Zealand and the end of the road also for three of their all-time greats, as Sophie Devine, Suzie Bates and Lea Tahuhu head into retirement. Ireland's win earlier in the day meant that New Zealand had their fate in their own hands, but it will be the Windies who will progress along with England who finish the group unbeaten and look a formidable force heading into the home straight.

Ayesha Zafar and Gul Feroza added 79 in quick time after the departure of opener Muneeb Ali but otherwise it's been slow going for Pakistan. Netherlands unlucky with Feroza dropped, a wicket, and an Umpire's call going against them in the penultimate over. A wicket and another drop in the twentieth plus an edged boundary gives Pakistan a few more than they deserved. Feroza finishes unbeaten, could her innings be the difference today. Great support for the Dutch who seem to have brought a large contingent of supporters to the tournament - will they have something special to celebrate later? Heather Siegers gives the Dutch a quick start but is lbw as Pakistan review umpire Rathi's not out call and Molkenboer run out by a direct hit in the next over. De Leede and Kalis tried to rebuild but struggled to get any momentum against the spinners. Rate climbing all the time as the Dutch have little to offer other than singles into the legside, and lose wickets attempting even that. Fatima Sana wraps things up with a triple wicket maiden in the eighteenth - easy pickings.
