The ICC had stated that if Pakistan would have qualified for the semi-finals, they would have played at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. If India qualified for the semi-finals, they would play at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai unless India's opponent was Pakistan (the match would then be held at Eden Gardens in Kolkata in this case). All knockout matches will have a reserve day.[1]

Qualification

The host, India, was the first team to qualify for the semi-finals after their mammoth 302-run win against Sri Lanka, their seventh successive win in the World Cup.[2]

South Africa became the second team to qualify for the semi-finals after Pakistan defeated New Zealand on 4 November; however, with that win, Pakistan kept their hope for knockout stage alive.[3]

India secured the top place amongst the semi-finalists after they beat South Africa by 243 runs on 5 November at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, accumulating 16 points in 8 matches, as no other team would be able to gather as many points as India in their remaining matches.[4]

Australia became the third team to qualify for the semi-finals after defeating Afghanistan on 7 November, sharing equal points with South Africa, and they will play against each other in the semi-finals.[5]

On 11 November at Eden Gardens, England batted first, and scored 337/9 in 50 overs. For Pakistan to qualify for the semi-finals, had to chase to total in 6.4 overs to surpass New Zealand in net run rate as the teams had the same number of points. However, after the end of the first innings, New Zealand qualified for the semi-finals as the target was technically never possible to be chased down in 6.4 overs. Hence, New Zealand confirmed their berth in the semi-finals as the fourth team and is set to face India successive times in the semi-finals.[6]

The match officials for semi-finals were announced on 13 November 2023.[7]
