 Heavy rain left Pretoria's Harlequin CC waterlogged on Sunday |
England face a Women's World Cup semi-final against unbeaten Australia after rain ruined Sunday's game against West Indies in Pretoria. Heavy rain and waterlogged pitches caused all four of the final round of group matches to be abandoned.
With the points shared, England finish fourth in the table, playing a harder semi on Tuesday rather than Thursday.
India and New Zealand, who have both beaten England, have already booked semi spots and meet on Thursday.
There are reserve days far each semi-final should rain prevent a result on the scheduled day.
The rain was good news for West Indies, though, who will not have to qualify for the next tournament by virtue of finishing in the top six, as did Sri Lanka.
But South Africa, who failed by a single run to secure a bonus point against Sri Lanka on Friday, will have to go through the qualifiers after finishing a surprising second-from-bottom.
England's group match against Australia was one of those washed out on the opening day of the tournament.
