When is England vs Pakistan at T20 Women’s World Cup 2023? How to watch on UK TV, date, start time, team news

England have made it through to the semi-final stages of the T20 World Cup following their 11 run win over India. They will, however, have one final group stage fixture to play ahead of the semi-final clash as they take on Pakistan this week.

As it stands, England and India are both set to go through to the final four along with Australia and New Zealand but this could all change as the final matches of the group stages take place. Australia have already sealed their place in the final four, following their four wins from four matches while New Zealand must wait for the result of South Africa’s upcoming match against Bangladesh to find out their fate.

England took on India on Saturday and they suffered a poor start at the hands of the Indian fast bowler Renuka Thakur. Thakur took five wickets for just 15 runs and Nat Sciver-Brunt top scored for Heather Knight with 50 runs off 42 balls. Wicket-keeper Amy Jones backed up the England vice-captain with 40 off 27 balls to give England a lead of 151 runs.

India’s Smriti Mandhana top scored for her side with 52 off 41 but England’s bowlers were able to defend their 151 and keep India’s total to just 140 and win their place to the T20 World Cup semi-finals...
