PREVIEW

Life in the Women’s ODI World Cup 2025 comes full circle for England and South Africa. Both sides are back to where their campaigns began in this tournament (against each other), with both eager to leave triumphs and demons of the past where they belong.

The record, over the years, has not been kind to the South Africans.

In the three prior semifinals they have made in ODI World Cups, they’ve lost twice to England – a heartbreaking two-wicket loss in Bristol in 2017 and a 137-run demolition in Christchurch in 2022.
