Semi-final (2 July)

With the eliminations of Jack Vidgen, Chynna Taylor, and Mitch Paulsen, Guy Sebastian had no more contestants left on his team, making this the fourth season in the Australian version of the franchise where a coach did not have a contestant in the Grand Finale. However, this is also the first and only season so far, that a coach lose three artists in the semifinals, as well as the first instance that a debuting coach is not representee in the finale. Additionally, this is also the second season where Delta Goodrem managed to bring two artists to the Grand Finale.
