Overnight both the BlackCaps and WhiteFerns lost, meaning that both miss the semi finals, the Women were "unlucky" given they finished level of points with both Australia & South Africa, but their inferior net-run-rate cost them. I'm proud of their efforts throughout the tournament, and looking forward to their next games.
Great win by the Netherlands overnight too. Given there performances against South Africa, New Zealand, Ireland and England, it was sad to read that the Netherlands' future in Cricket is unclear: they didn't qualify for next years' One Day World Cup, their one day status has been removed and their financials are it quite a state (apparently).
Back on the field, the women's semi finals are most likely, Australia v England and West Indies v South Africa, and the men's India v South Africa & Sri Lanka v (the winner of tonight's Pakistan v West Indies).
