The eventual victors were the 2010 champions Australia, who beat pre-tournament favourites[2] England by four runs in the final, a match which came down to the final ball.[3] England captain Charlotte Edwards blamed this defeat on a "lack of discipline" in her side,[4] whilst Test Match Special analyst Ebony Rainford-Brent cited underachieving bowlers and England's inability to rotate the strike.[4]

With a total of 172 runs (an average of 43 per game), Edwards was named player of the tournament.[5]

Format

The format of the competition is effectively identical to that of the super-eight and knock-out stages of the men's tournament.

Following warm-up matches, the teams were divided into two groups where matches were played in a round-robin format.

The two best placed teams from each group progressed to the two-round knock-out stage, whilst the eliminated teams played each other for qualification for the 2014 tournament.
