• India, who are the hosts and the other teams that finished in the top eight of the 13-team have automatically qualified for the showpiece event.

UAE and USA clinched the final two qualifying spots after finishing as the top two teams at the World Cup Qualifier play-offs in March-April this year. West Indies and Sri Lanka go into the Qualifier as favourites • AFP/Getty Images Awesome. So how does the upcoming Qualifier work? All matches will have ODI status, and will come thick and fast. The ten teams have been split into two groups of five. Group A includes Nepal, Netherlands, USA, West Indies and Zimbabwe, while Group B consists of Ireland, Oman, Scotland, Sri Lanka and UAE.

1. Each side will play four group matches, facing the others in their group once in a round-robin format.
2. The winner of each game will be awarded two points, while ties and no-results will fetch one point each.
3. After the 20 group-stage matches are done, the top three sides from each group will progress to the Super Six, carrying over the points they acrue against the other two teams that reach this stage.

Each team in the Super Six will face the three qualifying teams from the opposite first-round group. Thereafter, the top two teams on the Super Six table will qualify for the 2023 World Cup. Wait, so no final? There will be a match between the top-two Super Six sides, with the winner taking home a shiny trophy.

But the final will be a win-win game for both sides, since they’ve both already booked their World Cup berths. Sweet. Oh, before I forget: where’s this happening and when? In Zimbabwe, as was the case last time around, Four venues, two each in Harare and Bulawayo, will host the matches. The tournament commences on June 18, with the group-stage games finishing on June 27.

The Super Six will run from June 29 to July 7, while the final will take place on July 9 at Harare Sports Club. Playoffs to decide seventh to tenth places will take place from June 30 to July 6. Here’s the full list of, and all the, Afghanistan made it to the 2019 World Cup after a near-miraculous Qualifier triumph in 2018 • International Cricket Council Anything new this time around? The DRS. After first announcing the presence of third umpires to monitor only run-outs, the ICC confirmed that DRS will be in use from the Super Six stage for the first time in a World Cup Qualifier.

1. Surely West Indies and Sri Lanka go in as favourites? Going by the rankings, you would say so.
2. Both teams narrowly missed out on automatic qualification for the World Cup, and will fancy their chances.
3. West Indies have shown excellent recent form in ODIs: coming into the Qualifier, they swept UAE 3-0 in an ODI series in Sharjah, and had earlier drawn 1-1 against South Africa.

Sri Lanka, meanwhile, are coming off a 2-1 ODI series win over Afghanistan. However, don’t rule out Zimbabwe, who will be playing in their home conditions, and will have the backing of the local crowd. And the underdogs ? Ireland have reasonable recent game time under their belt, and plenty of in-form players.

They could prove to be a handful. Talking of underdogs, don’t forget Nepal, who have never featured in an ODI World Cup, but have a team for the conditions, are on a roll, and can cause a few upsets. The last World Cup Qualifier. what happened there? Heartbreak for Zimbabwe and Scotland, and World Cup qualification for Afghanistan and West Indies.

Afghanistan’s qualification was nothing short of miraculous. They entered the Super Six staring down the barrel, but successive wins and favourable results from other games ensured they booked a place at the 2019 World Cup. A win over West Indies in the final was the cherry on top of a comeback for the ages.

Why is Germany out of World Cup?

Germany crash out of World Cup in huge upset after draw with South Korea South Korea took the biggest scalp of the World Cup group stage, a stunning defensive performance earning a draw sending Germany, one of the tournament favourites, out of the competition.

• Alex Popp’s header at the close of the first half cancelled out Cho So-hyun’s early strike but with Morocco against Colombia, only a win would stop those two progressing and Germany crashing out.
• We need to take responsibility and it is clear that I have the greatest responsibility,” said Germany’s manager, Martina Voss-Tecklenburg.

“We have to analyse and draw conclusions. The whole year was not so solid, we will look at that.” Germany had perhaps not expected to go into this game needing a result, with the likely feeling confident in their group. A huge 70 places separated them from the debutants Morocco in the Fifa rankings and the second-ranked side also had a large margin over South Korea, who are 17th, and Colombia, 25th. Cho So-hyun of Korea Republic celebrates with Choo Hyo-joo after rocking Germany with an early goal. Photograph: Justin Setterfield/Getty Images “We needed a goal and we needed a success,” said South Korea’s manager, Colin Bell, whose side finished bottom of Group H.

• That we had two early chances and scored gave us momentum.
• With the exception of Sydney Lohmann no one caused problems for us.” There were two changes to the Germany side that had suffered a in their second game.
• The defender Sara Doorsoun and the midfielder Lina Magull dropped to the bench with Wolfsburg’s centre-back Marina Hegering and the Bayern Munich forward Lea Schüller starting.

South Korea made three changes to the team that had lost 1-0 to Morocco, with Choe Yu-ri, Chun Ga-ram and the 16-year-old forward Casey Phair coming in for Hong Hye-ji, Son Hwa-yeon and Park Eun-sun. Germany looked rattled early on by an aggressive press, perhaps still shaken by the 2-1 loss to Colombia and South Korea had clearly done their homework.

1. It took six minutes for South Korea to score a goal that would rattle Germany further.
2. A defence-splitting pass from Lee Young-ju found Cho and the former Tottenham midfielder slotted coolly into the bottom-left corner.
3. It was the team’s first goal of the World Cup, after two defeats, and criminally comedic defending by Germany, who switched off to the run of Cho, giving her a clean run through.

Popp, who missed the Euros final after an injury in the warm-up, equalised when ghosting into the area and leaping above Kim Hye-ri to powerfully head in Svenja Huth’s cross. That lifted Germany to second in the table but their time with a foot in the last 16 was short, Morocco taking a shock lead deep into added-time at the end of the first half.

after newsletter promotion Just before the hour Germany had the ball in the net again, with Sara Däbritz’s cross flicked on by the heel of Schüller to Popp, who headed in at the far post, clashing with the keeper and going down injured in the process, but VAR found that Schüller was offside. Despair for Alex Popp at a wasted Germany chance. Photograph: Matt Roberts/Fifa/Getty Images Germany dominated, with 72% possession and nine shots to South Korea’s three, but the teams had two efforts on target apiece. Popp hit the crossbar with another header but Germany struggled to create clear chances as South Korea put everything on the line at the back to hold off wave after wave of pressure.

“In the end, the margins are small but in the one-v-one situation we were not present enough, we were too static and then it is difficult to create big chances,” Voss-Tecklenburg said. “Then time runs out and you need a little luck, but you cannot rely on luck.” At the final whistle in Brisbane, Germany bodies folded in despair and tears flowed, while more than 4,000km away in Perth a huddled group of Morocco players, who in their opening game, screamed in ecstasy as news of the result filtered through.

“I don’t know what to say since I do not understand what has happened here,” a stunned Popp said. “It was bumpy for us. This was not our goal, but I cannot say why this has happened.” : Germany crash out of World Cup in huge upset after draw with South Korea

Is Germany out of the World Cup?

Germany’s 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup title hopes went down the drain on Thursday, when it played South Korea to a 1-1 draw and was subsequently eliminated from the tournament after Morocco took down Colombia, Germany was in control of the ball for the bulk of the game and had several missed scoring opportunities down the stretch.

Format – Qualification for the tournament is a lengthy process. It often takes place in the preceding years to the World Cup proper. UEFA (Europe), CONMEBOL (Central America), CONCACAF (South America), CAF (Africa), AFC (Asia) and OFC (Oceania) all hold their respective preliminary tournaments.

1. Then, the successful sides from those confederations take their place in the tournament automatically.
2. Some who do not secure automatic progression will enter a playoff system.
3. There, they will fight for their place in the World Cup finals over two legs.
4. In tournament proper, in recent editions there have been eight groups of four.

In that format, all the sides in each pool play one another once. Seedings mean the host nation, the holders and the remaining highest ranked outfits are spread across the groups. The top two teams from each pool progress into a knockout bracket. From which, the eventual winner is determined.

• Typically, the winner of Group A faces the runner-up in Group B and vice versa.
• That ensures there is a merit to chasing top spot in the round robin format.
• It means the team that wins their four knockout matches is the champion.
• Nations progress by winning their matches in normal time, in extra-time or via a penalty shootout.

The World Cup final has been won via a penalty shootout twice in its history. Firstly, Brazil beating Italy in 1994. Secondly, Italy defeated France in 2006. From 2026, the format will change again. With 16 groups of three beginning the tournament proper, the top two progress to make a 32-team knockout bracket.
