India (247) register comprehensive 88-run win over Pakistan (159) in Match 6 of the ICC Women's ODI World Cup

Why don't the Pak women wear half sleeves especially when batting especially in this heat.

The sleeves they have are so long they've got them folded up.
 
Some momentum for Pakistan - need to keep going these two
 
The fact that Pakistan have managed to put together a 15 team squad is admirable 👍.

I remember a couple of years ago there was a girl who went viral for hitting some big 6s against good Aus bowlers. Looked like elite talent. I think she was made to quit and become religious. Forgetting her name.
 
This game is pretty much done. But India have to up their game, this sloppiness won't work against top teams.
We have no shot against England.Aus and Nzl. Asian teams are easy peasy .Need to beat 1 good team to sneak into semis pretty much.
 
With Alex Pereira reclaiming his belt, Jiri beating Khalil, IndW thrashing PakW like usual, I would say this weekend has been great so far.

Stories like these make me back Afgan and Pakistani female Cricketers despite being an Indian. The challenges they face to reach this level are unimaginable.
 
Harman Preet’s captaincy is mediocre. I am assuming coaches run the show in women’s cricket so coaching has been pathetic.
 
A well under-par performance from Indian women. They are not winning anything playing like that.

Compared to women's Football, Cricket is terrible. Probably should just stick to T20 version.
Women’s tennis, track field, hockey are also high quality and almost on par with men’s events . Only women’s cricket is stuck in the 1930s.

Didnt you lose a bet with a poster here during Oman vs Pakistan match, where you said If Oman loses you will not post for a month...looks like your not a man of your word
 
First time watching a woman's game. Well played, Sidra Amin.

Indian team's fielding is pathetic. They won't stand a chance against Australia, I'm afraid.
 
Was there a handshake 🤝 or not ? Couldn't watch the terrible keeping and reviews from India
 
Pakistan women's team should do some mountain climbing, rock lifting to improve their power hitting in power play.

Pakistan badly needs new young female players, we keep carrying the same TTfs who have zero incentive to improve because they know the board has no other alternatives
 
Diana Baig reached a milestone of 100 international wickets with an impressive four-wicket haul against India Women, although Pakistan Women fell 88 runs short of the 248-run target in their second ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup match at the R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Colombo on Sunday night.

After winning the toss and choosing to bowl, Pakistan captain Fatima Sana made an early breakthrough by trapping Smriti Mandhana leg-before. Sadia Iqbal followed up by bowling Pratika Rawal for 31 off 37 balls, with India at 67 runs.

Diana Baig then struck a crucial blow by dismissing Harmanpreet Kaur (19 off 34 balls, 2 fours), caught behind in the 25th over with India at 106. Harleen Deol anchored the innings with a top score of 46 off 65 balls, supported by Richa Ghosh (35* off 20 balls, 3 fours, 2 sixes), Jemimah Rodrigues (32 off 37 balls, 5 fours), and Deepti Sharma (25 off 33 balls, 1 four), helping India cross the 200-run mark. Pakistan managed to claim the last seven wickets for just 96 runs.

Diana finished with figures of 10 overs, 1 maiden, 69 runs, and 4 wickets. Fatima Sana and Sadia Iqbal chipped in with two wickets each.

In response, Sidra Amin entered in the fifth over and scored a resilient 81, her 13th ODI fifty, featuring nine boundaries and a six. She built a 69-run partnership for the fourth wicket with Natalia Parvaiz (33 off 46 balls, 4 fours) and added 41 runs in 43 balls for the sixth wicket with Sidra Nawaz (14 off 22 balls, 1 four). Despite these efforts, Pakistan was bowled out with 42 balls remaining.

India’s Kranti Goud and Deepti Sharma were the standout bowlers, each claiming three wickets, with Goud earning the Player of the Match honors.

They dont need your support or backing …. Stick to bulldozing and the rest of it…
 
These Pakistani female players hide behind the lack of attention, support behind women's cricket in Pakistan behind their substandard performances but the reality is that the PCB especially under Ehsan Mani, Wasim Khan significantly increased and pumped money into the Pakistani female cricketers and the same group of 20-30 cricketers have been playing non stop for the country for the last 10-15 years. They need to be held accountable for not showing any improvement.

PCB and perhaps the PSL franchises too need to launch a massive talent hunt scheme for new female cricketers in the country and then develop a domestic structure for the female cricketers with a good healthy mix of T20, ODI and 4 day cricket for them. Maybe even incentivize them with a Women's psl as well. Can't think of any other way to urgently uplift standards
 
Pakistani fans after they lose to India fourth Sunday in a row.

I feel sorry for the modern generation.

Must have been good in the 90s for them to win fixed Sharjah cups and kiptley and coco cola Pepsi cups that were also phiixxxed. But then I checked the records and even back then they hardly won any important games in Asia cup icc events vs weak India.

Sorry I actually don’t feel sorry for them but I just wanted to mention it for the sake of it.

Good luck though in the future. Pakistan if they focus on developing first class cricket then they can be a good team. If they keep playing t20 then it’s hard to improve.
 
India has dropped so many catches. How are they going to finish top 4 with this kidn of fielding
Indian batting also has to improve a lot. With the batting they did, they could win against Sri Lanka or Pakistan. Now India has to play stronger teams.

It takes generations to improve cricket talent, not magically throwing money one time to the same players.

Talent hunt is the right idea. Once true talent can be lured into cricket the performance will improve, but for that cricketing skills should be honed from childhood.
