Women’s T20 World Cup: As expected, the Pakistani cricket team struggled against the Sri Lankan side and were reduced to 74/7 at one stage. Chamari Athapaththu was the wrecker-in-chief as she picked three wickets. But Fatima Sana scored 30 from 20, to take Pakistan to 116.
Come the second innings, spinner Omaima’s twin-wickets derailed the chase for Sri Lanka, as they were reduced to 44/3 in 10 overs. But then, eventually Pakistan won by 31 runs to start the tournament well.
After an entertaining ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 opener between Bangladesh and Scotland, we are in the second match of the tournament. The clash will be an all-Asia one, with Pakistan women’s taking on Sri Lanka women’s at the iconic Sharjah Cricket Ground.
