Who will win the Women’s T20 World Cup? How to follow Sunday’s final between South Africa and New Zealand live on Sky Sports, where a first-time champion will be crowned.

Reigning champions Australia saw their hopes of a fourth title in a row and seventh overall ended by South Africa in the first semi-final as the Proteas romped to an eight-wicket win for their first victory over the Southern Stars in World Cups.

Laura Wolvaardt’s side will now face New Zealand in the showpiece game after the Black Caps held on for a narrow eight-run win over the West Indies in the other semi-final.

New Zealand are into their first Women’s T20 World Cup final since 2010 after withstanding an all-round onslaught from Deandra Dottin to claim a tense victory in Sharjah, meaning there will be a first-time champion in this year’s edition.

Build-up to the final begins on Sunday live at 2.30pm on Sky Sports Cricket, ahead of the match starting at 3pm, while an over-by-over blog, highlights and scoreboard updates will be available live on the Sky Sports App and website.

What happened to England?

England crashed out of the T20 World Cup on net run-rate after slumping to a six-wicket defeat to West Indies in their final group game.

Victory for England at the Dubai International Stadium would have seen them progress to the semi-finals after they had comfortably won all three of their Group B fixtures in Sharjah, but they were restricted to 141-7 before being beaten by two overs to spare.

West Indies’ openers Hayley Matthews and Qiana Joseph both blitzed quickfire fifties to set their side up for their first win against England in 14 matches, with Joseph’s maiden international half-century coming after being dropped four times in her innings.

Joseph and Matthews fell in the 13th and 14th overs respectively before another big-hitter, Deandra Dottin, struck 27 off 19 deliveries, with Aaliyah Alleyne scoring the winning boundary to see West Indies reach their victory target inside 18 overs.

England dropped five catches dropped overall as they finished third in Group B on net run rate, behind West Indies and South Africa, after all three teams finished on six points.
