PAK-W vs SL-W, Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 LIVE:
Hello and welcome to our coverage of Match 2 of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 where Pakistan take on Sri Lanka at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in Sharjah, United Emirates on Thursday.
The first game of the tournament was a relatively low-scoring affair. A slow wicket where runs were not so easy to score. One aspect the players will be glad to see is that the game is being played in the evening.
With cooler conditions as the game goes on, the side that wins the toss could look to bat first.
Sri Lanka has been performing well beyond expectations, and the skipper Chamari Athapaththu will have a big role to play for the Lankan side.
Pakistan also have some good players in their arsenal. The likes of Gull Feroza and Muneeba Ali are key players with the bat.
The last time the two sides met, turned out to be a nail-biting finish which saw the game down to the wire.
