England entered the tournament with trademark composure and consistency. Their journey began emphatically with a 10-wicket demolition of South Africa after bundling them out for just 69. They followed up with another clinical chase against Bangladesh, cruising past 178 with four wickets to spare. Nat Sciver-Brunt’s elegant 117 off 117 balls powered an 89-run victory over Sri Lanka, while Heather Knight’s match-winning century against India underlined England’s grit in crunch moments. Although rain disrupted their clash with Pakistan and Australia edged them out in a tight contest, England’s campaign has remained one of balance and resilience.
New Zealand’s story has been one of heart and fight amid fluctuating fortunes. They rattled the defending champions Australia early, reducing them to 128/5 before a late counterattack turned the tide. Their encounter with South Africa was another close affair, just falling short while defending 232. A commanding 100-run win over Bangladesh signaled a turnaround, but rain-interrupted matches against Sri Lanka and Pakistan broke their rhythm. In their last outing versus India, the White Ferns fell 53 runs short in a rain-adjusted chase of 325, with Brooke Halliday’s valiant 81 and Izzy Gaze’s spirited support standing out in a brave effort.
