A 2-1 series* victory over Sri Lanka has moved the West Indies up to 3rd in the Women’s International Championship, pushing England down to 5th, though England have 3 games in hand, to be played against Australia as part of this summer’s Women’s Ashes.
Australia remain top of the WIC, despite having played 3 matches fewer than 2nd-placed South Africa.
The top 4 sides qualify automatically for the World Cup in England in 2017.
| Team | Played | Points |

| England | 6 | 7 |
| Sri Lanka | 9 | 5 |
| New Zealand | 6 | 4 |
