Taylor was dropped on 46 by Sutherland off Gardner, although Gardner trapped Ramharack lbw next ball. With the injured Mohammed and an unwell Henry unable to bat.

Australia progressed when King had Taylor caught by Jonassen at backward point for 48, sealing a comprehensive victory and a seventh World Cup final berth.
