The International Cricket Council (ICC) has opted against moving women's World Twenty20 matches away from St Lucia, despite continual torrential rain on the Caribbean island.
While Australia's base in Guyana for Ground B matches has been unaffected, rain is forecast for the rest of the week in St Lucia where the remainder of Group A matches are scheduled.
It forced the ICC to consider moving matches to Antigua - where the finals are scheduled - after England's opening match against Sri Lanka was washed out without a ball being bowled on Saturday.
However, the organising body has decided against the move, indicating there was no guarantee of more cricket by the time the ground was prepared.
"Our absolute priority is to do everything we can to play cricket and as such in light of the forecast in Saint Lucia, we explored alternative options for Group A games," ICC's head of events Chris Tetley said.
"After considering a range of factors including a detailed analysis of weather forecasts in both Saint Lucia and Antigua and an inspection of the square and outfield in Antigua, we have taken the decision to continue as scheduled.
"The rain currently forecast in Antigua would impact on our ability to prepare the playing surfaces for any relocated fixtures, as well as the playing of any subsequent matches."
The ICC also said it was confident the weather would improve in St Lucia, despite 40 per cent more rain falling in the opening 10 days of November than the average monthly figure.
If the group was to be entirely washed out, the West Indies would progress after they beati Bangladesh in their opening group game in Guyana, as well as England based on ICC rankings.
