The Super Six stage of the ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup 2025 is all set to begin from Saturday (January 25). The confirmed schedule brings an exciting mix of matchups as the tournament heads into its crucial phase, with a total of 12 matches being played. These matches will determine the teams that will advance to the semi-finals and vie for the ultimate title.
Format of the super six stage
The Super Six stage follows a unique structure that intensifies the competition. The 12 teams, previously divided into groups, are now split into Group 1 and Group 2. The teams that have progressed from the group stage will now play against those in the opposite group.
The format is designed to avoid any repeated matchups from the group stage, adding more variety and excitement to the Super Six round. Group 1 consists of the top three teams from Group A, who will compete against two qualifiers from Group D. On the other hand, Group 2 will have teams from Group B, who will face two qualifiers from Group C. The structure also ensures that the top three from each group will get the opportunity to progress further, but crucially, points earned in the group stage against other qualifying teams will carry forward into the Super Six round. This provides teams with an extra incentive to perform well early on, as their results in the group stage can have a significant impact on their Super Six prospects.
Super Six Group 1 | Super Six Group 2 |
---|---|
1. India | 1. South Africa |
2. Australia | 2. England |
3. Sri Lanka | 3. United States |
4. Bangladesh | 4. Nigeria |
5. Scotland | 5. Ireland |
6. West Indies | 6. New Zealand |
Team matchups and points carry forward
In the Super Six stage, teams will not face the same opponents from the group stage. This rule ensures that all teams are presented with fresh challenges as they look to advance. For example, the Group A winner will only face the second and third-placed teams from Group D, which means the top-ranked teams will be able to strategically target their opponents based on previous results.
The carry-forward of points from the group stage adds another layer of complexity and strategy. Teams that performed well in the group stage will start with an advantage in the Super Six, and this could significantly impact their ability to qualify for the semi-finals. This format ensures that a team’s success in the group stage is not wasted, and their efforts are rewarded as they continue in the tournament.

Path to the semi-finals
As teams navigate the Super Six stage, the objective is to finish in the top two positions of their respective groups, which will secure their place in the semi-finals. The format ensures that only the most consistent teams advance, with both the group and Super Six results determining who reaches the final stages of the tournament. This makes every match a high-stakes contest, as teams must perform under pressure to secure a place in the semi-finals and eventually the final, where they will compete for the ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup 2025 title. With all to play for, the Super Six stage promises to deliver some thrilling encounters as the best of the best in youth women’s cricket battle for glory.
