On Thursday, October 3, the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 will have its second match in Sharjah, where Sri Lanka Women, the current Asia Champions, will take on Pakistan Women.
Both teams seek to make a good start in order to make up for the previous embarrassments in ICC events. Although Pakistan are confronting a few issues, Sri Lanka, who have won both the warm-up fixtures, will be looking to begin on a confident note.
It’s quite worrying that Pakistan lost both of their practice matches against Bangladesh and Scotland. And Nida Dar’s stepping down from the captain role, which was done by the PCB before the tournament, could have a bearing on these effects, but new leader Fatima Sana is positive about the outcome of the contest.
All of cricket fans can expect doing very interesting activities starting from October 3 since the best women teams in the world will be calling to the United Arab Emirates.
PAK-W vs SL-W head-to-head record:
In their 20 T20I encounters, Pakistani and Sri Lankan women share a closely disputed record. With ten wins, Pakistan women have marginally outperformed their opponents. Sri Lankan women have shown their competitiveness by claiming nine victories.
The fact that just one game has resulted in a draw highlights the teams’ capacity to create clear winners. The two sides’ evenly matched head-to-head record suggests competitive and unpredictable matches, which could make for exciting cricket action. With every thrilling battle, the rivalry gets stronger.
Who will win the match?
The result is unexpected because the women of Pakistan and Sri Lanka are evenly balanced. But given their previous performance and head-to-head history, Pakistan women might have a tiny advantage. In 20 matches, their 10-9 lead indicates a little advantage. Experienced players from Pakistan, like Sidra Ameen and Aliya Riaz, could also be crucial.
Their success will be largely dependent on Chamari Athapaththu of Sri Lanka. In the end, the squad that adjusts to Sharjah conditions the best and performs well under duress will win. Pakistan Women are just slightly favored to win, but it should be an exciting match.
