The rain has been a deciding factor in the 2025 Women’s World Cup clash between Pakistan and New Zealand at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Saturday, as the inclement weather forced the fourth washout of the tournament at the venue. 

With this result, South Africa have booked a spot in the semifinal and joined Australia for the last four. As things stand, the Kiwis have a very slim chance of qualifying for the semis. They hold fifth spot in the points table with four points in five games.
