IND W vs PAK W: India Women are set to take on arch-rivals Pakistan Women in a crucial encounter in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024.

The defeat to New Zealand not only dealt a significant blow to India’s chances of reaching the semi-finals, but the magnitude of the loss has made the road ahead more difficult. India will now be aiming not just for a win, but for a victory by a substantial margin to improve their NRR, which could prove vital in a tight group stage race.


Pakistan’s Strong Start In contrast, Pakistan Women started their campaign on a high note with a convincing 31-run victory over Sri Lanka. Led by captain Nida Dar, Pakistan will be brimming with confidence as they head into this fixture. Their disciplined bowling and solid batting display in the first match have put them in a favorable position in Group A. Another win against their biggest rivals, India, could solidify their spot in the semi-finals and deal a potentially fatal blow to India’s campaign.
