A do or die match against England, how will Team India reach the semi-finals of the Women’s ODI World Cup? Know the full equation

India will face England in their fifth match of the ICC Women’s ODI World Cup 2025. Team India has played a total of four matches in the tournament so far, out of which they have won two and lost two. Although Team India had a strong start to the tournament, beating Sri Lanka and then Pakistan in their opening matches, they failed to beat Australia and South Africa. In such a situation, reaching the semi-finals has become difficult. This is the reason why Harmanpreet Kaur-led Indian team now needs to win all their remaining matches. In such a situation, let’s find out what the equation is for Team India to reach the semi-finals of the Women’s ODI World Cup.

What is the equation for Team India?
The Indian team has yet to play three more matches in the tournament, in which they will face England, New Zealand and Bangladesh. Both England and New Zealand are strong teams. So, Team India will need to not only beat both but also maintain their run rate. If the Indian team wins all three of their matches, they will have 10 points and will easily reach the semi-finals, while if they lose even one match, they will have to depend on the other teams. This is the reason why Team India will want to win all their remaining three matches.
