England and South Africa have secured their places in the T20 World Cup semi-finals, leaving two spots up for grabs in the Super 8s stage. India and West Indies will battle for Group 1 qualification in Kolkata, while New Zealand and Pakistan face off for Group 2's final spot. The tournament's final is set for March 8.

In Group 1, South Africa's perfect record has already guaranteed their progression, leaving India and West Indies level on points after both teams beat Zimbabwe and lost to the Proteas. The winner of their Sunday clash advances, with West Indies currently holding the net run rate advantage. If rain washes out the match, the Caribbean side progresses automatically. Zimbabwe have been eliminated after two defeats.

Group 2 sees England through after victories over Sri Lanka and Pakistan, with New Zealand poised to join them if they avoid defeat against the defending champions in Colombo. Pakistan's inferior net run rate means they need a significant victory over Sri Lanka combined with a New Zealand loss to advance. Sri Lanka have already been eliminated after two defeats.
