Pitch Report

These are quite pleasant conditions that we have right now and the dimensions have one side rather short, all at 53 m, and another side rather long, at 63 m. Straight down the ground it's 73 m. The pitch is going to assist the spinners as the game goes on and bowling slower through the air will be the key for them.

Commentary

An inspiring performance from the West Indies have put them in the semifinals of the Women's T20 World Cup for the first time since 2018. They would be locking horns with New Zealand on October 18th in the second semifinal. Before that, we will see last time's finalists go up against each other in the first semifinal on October 17th.

Spare a thought for England, who did most things right in the lead up to this match and had a bit of a nightmare tonight. Well, that is how these tournaments work sometimes. One bad evening and that's the end of the road. We hope that you enjoyed the coverage. It is time for the duo of Darpan Tikiya and Bidipto Datta to sign off. See you in the semifinals! Sayonara!

Haley Matthews (West Indies Captain): Pretty good feeling. Incredibly proud of the group. We did our jobs with the ball and then, to put up a performance like that with the bat! Qiana was fantastic. When we were batting it slid on a bit more. We backed ourselves to chase down whatever target was put on the board. We will probably take a day-off tomorrow and then we are back on. We haven't won the World Cup yet. Every game from now on, we need to be switched on. It feels like we are peaking at that right time, so hopefully we can be even better in the semifinals.

Heather Knight (England Women captain): (First Thoughts) Frustrated! It was bad timing for me, but credit to the West Indies! We missed our chances but Hayley and her team were better. (On the 1st innings score) I think we were close to where we wanted to be at the mid-innings break but then, the partnership between Hayley and Qiana took it away from us. (On England's campaign) We played some really good cricket in this tournament, but one slip-up ends it really in a tough group like this! (On her injury scare) I'm okay now, but disappointed of course!

Qiana Joseph (Player of the Match, 52 runs off 38 balls): Hayley Matthews just told me to back myself and go after the bowling with full confidence. I was aggressive to begin with and I carried that aggression through. I like the competition and like to be challenged, and that brings the best out of me. I am really happy and thankful to my teammates! This semi-final slot means a lot to us!

It is now time for the post-match presentation!

West Indies win by 6 wickets and 12 balls to spare. They qualify for the semifinals.

Qiana Joseph 52 (38) | Haley Matthews 50 (38) & 2/35
Natalie Sciver-Brunt 57* (50) & 1/33 | Sarah Glenn 1/20

Coming into this game, West Indies had not beaten England in a women's T20I for over 13 matches in last 6 years. In fact, their last victory over them away from home had come more than a decade ago. But on the evening when it mattered the most, the team from the Caribbean punched above their weight to (in many ways, literally) knock-out the opposition.

They were even sans Stefanie Taylor today. But the senior pros stepped up. Dottin was like a live-wire in the field. Matthews led from the front contributing in all departments. But it was Qiana Joseph, who stole the spotlight with her whirlwind knock of 52 in just 38 balls. She was that out of the syllabus question that had the opposition in a fix.

Though, England had themselves to blame. You don't win too many matches after dropping 5 catches. Their start with the bat was ordinary and their bowlers looked clueless in front of the onslaught that Joseph and Matthews put on. The injury to Knight didn't help them. Sciver-Brunt was the only bright spec, but alas, a single player can only carry you so far.

17.6 Sophie Ecclestone to Aaliyah Alleyne, AND THAT WILL DO IT FOR WEST INDIES WOMEN! THEY ARE INTO THE SEMI-FINALS OF THE T20 WORLD CUP! Full around off-stump. Alleyne makes room and drives it with a slight open bat face to pick the gap wide of cover and send it away to the fence to pick up a boundary!

17.5 Sophie Ecclestone to Aaliyah Alleyne, full on off-stump. Stroked back to the bowler off the front foot here, no run.

17.4 Sophie Ecclestone to Aaliyah Alleyne, Oh! Good length ball on off-stump. This turns and bounces away to beat the defensive push on the back foot.

West Indies are on the brink now. 2 runs needed.

17.3 Sophie Ecclestone to Aaliyah Alleyne, FOUR RUNS! Full toss around off-stump. Thumped away off the front foot through the covers by making room!

Can Aaliyah Alleyene, RHB, hold here nerve and take WI beyond the finish line? She marks her guard now.

A pre-meditated move that from Dottin. She fails to execute that shot and is beaten by the ball drifting in.

17.2 Sophie Ecclestone to Deandra Dottin, BOWLS HER! Full on middle-and-leg. Dottin moves across to try and lap it over the left of the keeper but misses it. She then has to see her stumps in a mess as the England players celebrate!

Deandra Dottin b Sophie Ecclestone 27 (19b, 2x4, 2x6)

17.1 Sophie Ecclestone to Deandra Dottin, round the wicket, yorker on middle-stump. Dug out back to the bowler from deep in the crease.

Sophie Ecclestone [3-0-15-0] to bowl.

That brings Chinelle Henry, RHB, to the crease. She will be at the non-striker's end for starters.

Campbelle had been running between the wickets like a hare. She even got Deandra Dottin huffing and puffing. But in the end, she falls short of her ground trying to run a quick one.
