Sri Lanka sealed a place after they beat Zimbabwe in their first Super Sixes match on July 2. The Dasun Shanaka-led side were unbeaten in the group stages, winning four in four, and carried forward points into the next round. After beating Zimbabwe, they also dominated West Indies to finish on top of the Super Sixes points table.

There was a three-way battle for the second spot, with Zimbabwe, Scotland and the Netherlands all in the race. Zimbabwe, who had an exceptional start to the Qualifiers, winning their first five games, including against the West Indies, which knocked them out. However, two defeats to Sri Lanka and then to Scotland in a crucial game were enough to send them packing.

It all boiled down to the Scotland-Netherlands clash, where the Netherlands needed 278 from 44 overs to make the World Cup. A stunning effort from Bas de Leede got them through, and they will now play the 50-over World Cup for the first time since 2011.

The final of the Qualifiers will be held at Harare on Sunday from 9 am local time.
