ICC Women's World Cup Points Table After Pakistan's Eight-Wicket Win Over West Indies

Pakistan registered their first victory in the Women's World Cup since 2009 and the feat was achieved after the Bismah Maroof-led side defeated the West Indies by eight wickets in a rain-curtailed match on Monday at Seddon Park, Hamilton. Due to persistent rain and then the wet outfield, the game was reduced to 20-overs per side but what followed was a spirited performance by Team Pakistan. West Indies had no answers to what was thrown at them, and in the end, Pakistan walked away with a comfortable victory.

As a result of this win, Team India's path to the semi-finals has also gotten easier and the Mithali Raj-led side needs to win both their games against Bangladesh and South Africa to seal their last-four berth. 

Team India will square off against Bangladesh on Tuesday.  

Here is the updated points table after Pakistan vs West Indies match:

1. Australia (P5 W5 L0; Points 10; NRR +1.42)

2. South Africa (P4 W4 L0; Points 8; NRR +0.22)
