In the 2013 Women's World Cup, England were looking to become the first team since Australia in 1988 to successfully defend their title. However, it was not to be as they could only reach the third-place playoffs.

England, along with India, West Indies and Sri Lanka, were placed in Group A in the league stage. The English women lost their opening match against Sri Lanka by one wicket. But they rebounded to beat India by 32 runs and West Indies by six wickets to qualify for the Super Six stage.

A seven-wicket victory over South Africa and a 15-run win against New Zealand helped England reach the third-place playoffs, where they defeated the Kiwis by four wickets.
