Karachi, 2 June 2022: Leg-spinner Ghulam Fatima continues to make her presence felt after making a return to Pakistan women’s ODI squad after a five-year absence. The Sialkot-born produced her career-best to spearhead Pakistan’s crushing eight-wicket win over Sri Lanka in the opening match of the three-match ICC Women’s Championship series at the Southend Club, Karachi on Wednesday.
The 26-year-old was brought back into the national fold for this year’s ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2022 that was staged in New Zealand, she had last played for Pakistan against Sri Lanka in 2017 at Colombo.
Fatima earned her recall on the basis of an outstanding performance in the Pakistan Cup Women’s One-Day 2021-22 held in Karachi. Representing PCB Dynamites, Fatima took 10 wickets in seven matches at 22.10 at a miserly economy rate of 3.39.
During the World Cup, Fatima featured in two matches, taking three wickets for 52 in nine overs against South Africa and returning wicket-less in the match against Bangladesh.
On Wednesday, Fatima produced quality leg-spin and impressed all with her control, flight and variations which bamboozled the Sri Lankan batters.
Fatima finished her 10 overs conceding a mere 21 runs while accounting for four batters including two in consecutive balls as Sri Lanka crashed from 96 for three to 96 for six in the 31st over of their innings.
Speaking to media in the post-match press conference, Fatima revealed that she had idolised Australian legend Shane Warne who passed away recently. Fatima also vowed to make the most of the opportunity of donning the green Pakistan kit after a long gap.
Ghulam Fatima: “It is a memorable day for me and I am delighted to contribute to Pakistan’s success and to win the player of the match award. I have worked really hard to regain my place in the national side and I had to wait for a long time which has made me resilient and very eager to do well.
“I really enjoyed my spell today and took special delight in the four wickets I took. The bowled wicket [Oshadi Ranasinghe] was my favourite. I am focussed on making a long term contribution to Pakistan and for that I will continue to work hard and improve all aspects of my bowling.
“Shane Warne was my favourite leg-spin bowler and I always idolised him, it is unfortunate that I would not be able to meet him now.”
Fatima, meanwhile has provided Pakistan another quality leg-spin option after a hugely impressive debut by Tuba Hassan in the T20Is that preceded the ODI series.
Tuba who took the player of the match award in her debut ended-up with the player of the series trophy with five wickets in the three matches.
The pair of Fatima and Tuba can serve Pakistan with distinction in both formats as quality leg-spin options provide incredible balance and match winning bowling options to their captains in both white-ball formats.

Sidra's 123, Fatima's four-fer earns Pakistan series win
Karachi, 3 June 2022: Sidra Amin scored the second century of her ODI career as Pakistan sealed a 2-0 series win with a match to spare in the ICC Women’s Championship encounter against Sri Lanka at the Southend Club, Karachi on Friday. After recording a comprehensive eight-wicket win in the first match on Wednesday, the Sidra inspired Pakistan produced an all-round show to record a thumping 73-run win.
Sidra’s commanding batting performance was followed by another outstanding spell by young pacer Fatima Sana who took four Sri Lankan wickets.
Sri Lanka were never quite in the hunt of the 254-run target. Openers Hasini Perera (14) and captain Chamari Athapaththu (16) were sent back with only 31 runs on the board in 12.1 overs. The visitors failed to break the shackles and lost wickets as they attempted to up the scoring rate. Hansima Karunaratne (27) and Prasadani Weerakkody (20) consumed 101 balls in the middle overs.
Kavisha Dilhari who scored an unbeaten 49 in the first match scored 32 off 35 balls (two fours) but her departure via a stump out in the 39th over drew curtains to Sri Lanka’s efforts.
The visitors kept losing wickets as the lower-order succumbed to probing bowling by Pakistan bowlers. Fatima Sana who had accounted for Perera in her opening spell dismissed Oshadi Ranasinghe and Sachini Nisansala off successive balls in the 42nd over. Fatima Sana added her fourth when she dismissed Nilakshi de Silva for 17.
Fatima Sana finished with four wickets for 26 in her 10 overs, she bowled three maidens. Omaima Sohail took two for 35. Sri Lanka finished their 50 overs at 180 for nine.
Earlier, for the first time on the tour, Pakistan captain Bismah Maroof won the toss and opted to bat first. Sidra and Muneeba Ali combined to post Pakistan’s first-ever century plus opening-stand in ODIs.
The two were involved in a 158-run partnership which comfortably beat the previous best of 96 between Javeria Khan and Nahida Khan against England at Kuala Lumpur in 2019.
The left-handed Muneeba registered the second fifty of her ODI career. She was dismissed by Oshadi Ranasinghe for 56 off 100 balls (three fours).
Sidra reached the second century of her career on the 137th ball of her innings. The seasoned batter who had scored 76 in the first match produced another dazzling display to dominate the Sri Lankan attack.
Sidra went past her previous best of 104 and was just 10 runs shy of Pakistan’s all-time highest ODI score (133 by Javeria Khan) when she was dismissed for 123 (150 ball, 11 fours). Sidra added 74 runs for the second-wicket with Bismah. She has now joined Javeria as Pakistan most prolific ODI century scorer (two each).
Bismah who remained unbeaten on 36 off 43 balls, went past Javeria’s tally of 2885 runs to reach the top of Pakistan women’s run-getters list in the ODI format when she reached 31. Nida Dar scored 10 off seven including a four off the last ball to help the hosts get past the 250-run mark.
The third and final ODI will be played on Sunday.
Scores in brief:
Pakistan beat Sri Lanka by 73 runs
Pakistan 253 for 2, 50 overs (Sidra Amin 123, Muneeba Ali 56, Bismah Maroof 36 not out; Kavisha Dilhari 1-43
Sri Lanka 180 for 9, 50 overs (Harshitha Madavi 41, Kavisha Dilhari 32; Fatima Sana 4-26, Omaima Sohail 2-35)

Karachi, 6 June 2022: While disappointed at the 93-run loss in the third and final ICC Women’s Championship ODI against Sri Lanka on Sunday, Pakistan head coach David Hemp was overall pleased with the performance of his side that won the three-match T20I series 3-0 and the ODIs 2-1 against the touring Sri Lanka.
The tour culminated with Sri Lanka’s lone win of the tour on Sunday after the Bismah Maroof-led Pakistan had clean swept the T20Is and won the first ICC Women’s Championship series for the 2022-25 cycle at Karachi’s Southend Club, the venue that staged all six matches.
Pakistan collected four points from their two wins and currently sit on the top of the 10-team standings. Top six teams including the tournament hosts will qualify for the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025.
Hemp feels that Pakistan would have to keep the momentum going in the 50-over format as they are likely to get stiff competition from teams like Sri Lanka and South Africa for direct spots to the mega event in three years’ time.
While Pakistan’s next qualifying fixtures are a few months away (November against Ireland at home), the T2oI side has a busy season ahead with a tri-series in Ireland followed by the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
Prior to the team’s departure to UK for the twin assignments early next month, Hemp and the team management will work closely with players in a preparatory camp in Islamabad.
Hemp is confident that the team will build onto the success achieved against Sri Lanka and will be ready to take on stiffer opponents in the UK.
Pakistan Women’s Head Coach David Hemp: “Today [third ODI] was disappointing we certainly didn’t do ourselves justice across all skillsets. But overall I am quite pleased with the five wins we achieved. The teams we will be scrapping with for the 2025 World Cup qualification spots are likely to be teams like Sri Lanka and South Africa so every win and every point becomes important.
“It is a big positive for us that the games that we won we had a different player of the match in each game which means we are not relying on one or two key players. Tuba Hassan and Ghulam Fatima stepped-up in the series and we didn’t have Nashra Sandhu here due to an injury. With all these players in the spinners pack, we have quality and depth for the selectors to consider. Amongst the batters it was great to see Sidra Amin score another century. I still believe as a batting group we can score 230-240 regularly and I want the players to be more consistent.
“Expectations wise we want to reach the semis in the Commonwealth Games and while we have a tough group with Barbados, India and Australia, I believe that if you have to excel in such events you have to win the big games. Before the Commonwealth Games we have the tri-series in Ireland with Australia, the current world champions as the third team. Besides Australia Ireland will be a big challenge as they have recently beaten South Africa. The tri-series will provide us excellent preparation before we feature in the Commonwealth Games.
“Before heading out to Ireland we will have a camp in Islamabad where we will have the 15-member squad plus the reserves so I am confident that we will have adequate preparations for the two tours.”

In her very first month in international cricket, the Pakistan star has taken home the ICC Women's Player of the Month for May 2022.
Pakistan's Tuba Hassan only made her international debut in the T20I series against Sri Lanka in May and won the prestigious Player of the Month award in her first nomination.
In doing so, she became the first Pakistan player to win the ICC Women's Player of the Month award.
In her maiden international game, Hassan recorded brilliant figures of 3/8, which fetched her the Player of the Match award on debut. She struck with her second international ball to dismiss Anushka Sanjeewani and subsequently scalped Harshitha Madavi and Kavisha Dilhari.
In the next two games, she picked up a wicket each but was miserly in her economy. She finished the series with five wickets at an average of 8.8 and an economy rate of just 3.66 and was named the Player of the Series in Pakistan's 3-0 clean sweep.
Hassan saw off competition from her captain Bismah Maroof and 17-year-old Trinity Smith from Jersey to win the POTM award.
Former Pakistan international and member of the voting panel Sana Mir lauded Hassan for her dream debut saying, "Tuba has shown a lot of confidence and skill to make an impact for Pakistan in her debut series. She has been working hard for some time and it is really heartwarming to see her celebrating success in her first series for Pakistan."

Karachi, 23 June 2022: The four-day skill camp for Karachi-based women players concluded today at the Hanif Mohammad High Performance Centre, National Stadium. National team’s head coach David Hemp flew in from Lahore to work with national, emerging and academy players on a one-on-one basis with the help of national team’s bowling coach Saleem Jaffer, trainer Saboor Ahmed and Sindh women’s coach Azam Khan.
During the camp, the players worked extensively in nets sessions on their batting and bowling skills. Hemp and the rest of the coaches gave individual attention to the players in a bid to sort out technical challenges in various disciplines of the game.
The morning sessions were dedicated for players who are part of the Commonwealth Games and tri-series (Ireland) squad besides the prominent national Karachi players. The full squad will begin a 10-day long camp in Islamabad from 1 July before flying out to Ireland on 12July.
In the afternoon sessions, Hemp worked with players enrolled in the regional academy programme at the high performance centre.
The prominent players who took part in the camp included: Aiman Anwar, Fatima Sana, Kainat Imtiaz, Muneeba Ali, Omaima Sohail (all part of the Commonwealth squad), Anoosha Nasir, Aroob Shah, Javeria Rauf, Najiha Alvi, Rameen Shamim and Yusra Amir.
Hemp meanwhile, is pleased with the gains of the short camp and feels that a lot of good work has been done by regional coaches which has helped in development of a solid pool of national, emerging and back-up players in Karachi.
David Hemp: “Very productive four days in Karachi, it was great to come down and spend quality time in terms of one-on-one sessions with not only the contracted players but also the players who are a part of the emerging and academy pool here. The skill level within the female programme is there, we do need to however ensure that they are being constantly challenged in terms of improving their game, fitness etc.
“The challenge is to ensure that the players keep training and playing outside the national team setup. The purpose of this visit was also to give reminders to the players on how they can keep themselves fit and ready and how they can constantly train and improve even when they are not part of an event or series.
“The regional programmes that are up and running across the country under the supervision of coaches like Azam Khan, Naveed Anjum, Waqar Orakzai, Mohsin Kamal and Kamran Hussain are delivering for us now and all of them are doing a fantastic job. What was really encouraging for me was to see the development of emerging players that I saw six to eight months ago, they have made improvement in their game and deserve a lot of credit for that alongside the efforts of the coaches.
“The Commonwealth Games and the lead-up to that is very important for us, we will be starting a preparatory camp in Islamabad in a week’s time. During the camp we will be playing practice games to ensure we are well prepared for the big event and the tri-series in Ireland that precedes the Commonwealth Games.
“The tri-series in Ireland will provide us an excellent preparation opportunity as in Ireland and Australia we will be playing two teams that will be strong and will play the game differently in conditions that are foreign for us.”

Captain Bismah Maroof: “Our preparations have suffered a bit due to the persistent rains as we could not play practice matches, we had to hence shift our focus to fitness more. We tried to make most of the indoor facility we were provided and that did come as a good help to the side amid the weather challenges.
“The tri-series in Ireland provides us a good opportunity of acclimatising to the conditions ahead of the Commonwealth Games. We have a good team combination with youngsters like Tuba Hassan, Ayesha Naseem and Fatima Sana providing real energy, skill and talent, they are the ones for the future and this tour is a real opportunity for them to make a big impression.
“At the Commonwealth Games, we would take on the challenge of playing formidable opponents as to succeed there we need to beat the big teams, our aim would be to target a victory.”

The Bismah Maroof-led Pakistan will start their UK tour campaign tomorrow (Saturday) with the first match of the tri-series against Australia at the Bready Cricket Club, Magheramason. Hosts Ireland are the third team in the tournament that will provide an ideal opportunity to both Pakistan and Australia of solid preparations ahead of the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, later this month.
Pakistan reached Belfast earlier in the week and spent the last two days preparing for the tough tournament opener against the T20 world champions Australia. History is on Australia’s side heading into the match as they have a 100 percent win record against Pakistan with 10 wins from as many matches.
The two sides last competed in a T20I series in 2018 in Malaysia which the Australians won 3-0, while the last T20 encounter between both sides was staged in the ICC Women’s World T20 in the West Indies in November the same year, Australia won that match by 52 runs.
Pakistan though come into the tournament in a confident mode following their 3-0 win over Sri Lanka in the three-match T20I series staged in Karachi last month.
The 15-member squad for the tri-series and Commonwealth Games is full of exciting talent led by youngsters Tuba Hasan and Ayesha Naseem who both made match and series winning contributions against Sri Lanka.
Tuba, the young leg-spinner who was named the player of the series against Sri Lanka in what was her debut series, would be the one to look out for once again. Ayesha is a formidable striker and provides firepower to the batting line-up.
Pakistan team had a 10-day camp in Islamabad before travelling to the UK while head coach David Hemp and the support staff also worked with the players in short specialised camps in Lahore and Karachi in the lead-up to the tour.
As per the tri-series format, Pakistan will play both Australia and Ireland twice, all six tournament matches will be staged at the Bready Cricket Club. The team that finishes on the top of the three-team table at the completion of the six matches will be declared winners.

Bready, 23 July 2022: The Women’s tri-series involving Pakistan, Australia and hosts Ireland had another washout when the fifth match of the tournament between Australia Women and Pakistan Women was abandoned due to rain at the Bready Cricket Club on Saturday. This result keeps Pakistan unbeaten in the tournament.
This was the second time in the tri-series – both times the same teams were in action when the rain had interrupted the game. Earlier, the opening match of the tournament on 16 July was abandoned due to rain with both sides sharing two points each.
Chasing 95 to win, Australia got off to a brisk start and were 28 for no loss in 4.2 overs when play was stopped due to rain. Had the play went on for four more balls and five overs of play taken place, the result would have been determined on DLS.
Australia are top of the table with 12 points from four matches in the tournament. Pakistan are on the second spot with eight points, winning one match from three outings. Ireland occupy the last position with no points from three matches.
Earlier, after winning the toss for the third time in as many games, Bismah Maroof opted to bat first. The opening batters Iram Javed and Muneeba Ali provided a 21-run partnership for the first wicket as Iram (nine off 14) became the first batter to make her way back to the pavilion.
Iram’s partner Muneeba fell for 19 off 23 balls, striking two fours as the scorecard read 38 for three in the ninth over. In between Omaima Sohail was the second wicket to fall with 30 runs on the board at the end of the sixth over.
The only notable partnership for Pakistan was between captain Bismah and Aliya Riaz. The pair stitched 30 runs for the fifth wicket. The right-handed Aliya was unfortunately run-out for 14. She faced 17 balls and struck one four. Bismah top-scored and returned undefeated on 32 off 39 balls, hitting one four.
For Australia, Jess Jonassen was the most successful bowler with match figures of 4-0-17-4. Nicola Carey bagged two wickets for 16 from her four overs.
Pakistan will now take on Ireland tomorrow at the same venue.
Scores in brief:
Match called off due to rain
Pakistan Women 94-8, 20 overs (Bismah Maroof 32 not out; Jess Jonassen 4-17, Nicola Carey 2-16)
Australia Women 28-0, 4.2 overs

Its not working out
There have been no improvements and nothing is likely to change.
The only story about the Pak women team is about the baby girl - performances are no where to be found.

Have said this even before for years that the women's team has no strength to even clear the inner circle.
The players lack strength and straight up aren't international quality. People wanting to boot out Hemp need to understand that no matter who comes this wouldn't change the players.
Look at how the Indian women are built tall and stronger and literally bat at 150 SR where as our girls are barely at 100 or under most of the times.

The impression I get is that they seem to be grateful that they are being allowed to play in the first place!
They need to move on from this and actually start competing.

Even Bangladesh has better talent than our women.

No offence but this is a really poor take. Pakistan's Women's team is very much in its developmental stage. For context, Pakistan's men's team during its developmental stage won 2 out of 35 tests between 1960 and 1972.
Change does not happen overnight. It was only 3 years ago that PCB even started investing in women's cricket. And the same yardstick that is applied to the men's team cannot be applied to the women's team because both have not had the same access to opportunities historically.
Pakistan's women's cricket has alot of potential but it can't move forward if people have such a negative attitude towards it...that doesn't at all take into account the disparity of investment, opportunities, public spaces, wages, access to top-notch facilities that women from England, New Zealand, Australia, India have but our women don't.
It's easy to sit back and judge the team interms of wins and losses. But I don't think its that simple.
Pakistan's women's team is not a good team by any stretch of the imagination, but they need our support instead of negative takes like these that serve no real purpose besides perhaps demotivating the players further.

Playing for Pakistan should be a privilege and to earn that, you need to be good and willing to improve yourself.
There is something wrong in the way we are picking players or we simply do not have the talent.
In which case, PCB needs to do more to develop that talent; If it means sending these players to Australia for a year to train or think of some other way.
We cannot keep on competing without results like this and keep on hoping.

As I mentioned, women in our society simply donot have access to the same opportunities, public spaces, and facilities that the men do. On top of that, because of societal norms, very few of them are supported by their families to pursue cricket as a career path. Girls are not encouraged to go out and play cricket in school or in the evening like the boys are. This has been happening for decades. Which is why the talent pool is so scarce.
It's not as simple as 'there is something wrong with the way we pick players'...there is very little talent to pick from. PCB indeed has to do more but we shouldn't ignore the societal norms that underpin the influx (or lack thereof) of talent. Society also has a responsibility to progress and move away from dogmatic viewpoints.

With the ambition of creating a strong talent pool at the domestic level and further strengthen its pathways programme, the Pakistan Cricket Board will hold the first of its kind U19 T20 tournament from tomorrow (Saturday).
The U19 T20 Women Cricket Tournament 2022 will be competed by six Cricket Association teams, comprising 84 players, from 13 to 22 August at the Lahore Country Club, Muridke.
The 10-day tournament will be conducted on round-robin basis, meaning each team will play at least five matches. The league stage will be followed by semi-finals and final on 20 August and 22 August.
The U19 T20 Women Cricket Tournament 2022 serves a perfect opportunity for the players to stake a claim in the national U19 side ahead of the maiden ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup in South Africa next year and the top performers are also guaranteed places in the senior sides, which will come into action when the senior women domestic season commences from November.
To further incentivise the players to bring out their best performances, the PCB has also introduced financial awards to encourage the players to bring out their best. The winning team will receive PKR400,000 along with the silverware and the runner-up will get PKR200,000.
The player of the tournament will be awarded PKR20,000 and each player of the match will receive PKR10,000. The tournament’s top performers – best player, best batter, best bowler and best wicketkeeper – will be gifted kit bags to encourage them to enhance their skills and pursue their cricketing ambitions.
The PCB has also finalised the six squads, which consist of 14 players each. These squads have been nailed down after country-wide open trials and subsequent practice games amongst the selected players across the PCB-run women regional academies.

It was a commanding 70 not out at a strike rate of 106.06 by Central Punjab opener Eyman Fatima that made her side champions of the Women U19 T20 Tournament with a seven-wicket win over Sindh.
Central Punjab chased down 109 with four balls spare at Lahore Country Club as player of the final Eyman smashed 12 fours and two sixes in her 66-ball knock. She added 32 runs for the opening wicket with captain Shawal Zulfiqar and 49 with Warda Yousaf for the second wicket.
Eyman finished the tournament with the second most runs (171 at 85.50) – one run behind her captain, Shawal, who topped the charts with 172 (86 average). The two Central Punjab batters were amongst the four batters to score half-centuries in the tournament with Sindh’s Aroob Shah and Central Punjab’s Warda Yousaf being the other two.
Sindh managed 108 for eight after they were put into bat. Aroob, once again, led her side from front with 45 off 28 (eight fours) before she was run out by her opposite number. Anoosha Nasir made 21 off 25.
Central Punjab’s Quratulain and Laiba Nasir returned two for 14 and two for 22. Quratulain, along with Aroob, finished as the leading wicket-taker in the tournament (nine wickets).
Aroob was named player of the tournament for her all-round show. Best performers of the tournament were all from Central Punjab as Shawal bagged the award for batter, Quratulain for bowler, Eyman for fielder and Zamina Tahir for wicketkeeper.
Scores in brief:
Sindh 108-8, 20 overs (Aroob Shah 45; Quratulain 2-14, Laiba Nasir 2-22)
Central Punjab 110-3, 19.2 overs (Eyman Fatima 70 not out)

The Pakistan Cricket Board today confirmed David Hemp is not seeking an extension to his two-year contract, which expires in October.
David Hemp: “I have enjoyed living in Pakistan and working with the women cricketers, but it has also been difficult on me and my young family as I have been unable to spend enough time with them like any other father. After consulting my family, I have conveyed this difficult decision to the Pakistan Cricket Board, which has very graciously understood my situation and accepted my decision.
“It has been incredibly enjoyable and satisfying working with the girls. Although results in international arena may not truly reflect the hard work and effort that went into the planning and preparations, I am satisfied that I gave my very best and the girls equally responded.
“I was especially pleased with the emergence of Fatima Sana, who won the ICC Emerging Cricketer of the Year 2021 award and became the first Pakistan women cricketer to win the ICC Cricketer of the Month award and displayed her excellent talent in the recently-concluded Commonwealth Games. I am optimistic we will see many more young women cricketers from domestic competitions and talent hunt programmes to enter the Pakistan framework and contribute in the teams’ future achievements.
“I want to thank everyone at the Pakistan Cricket Board, women’s wing and the entire side who not only backed and supported me but also made my stay memorable and comfortable. I will remain a big fan of Pakistan women’s cricket, will continue to follow their progress with excitement and remain confident that better results and successes await them down the road.”
Tania Mallick, PCB Head of Women’s Wing: “It is sad to lose someone of David’s caliber, enthusiasm and strong work ethics, but at the same we also understand and accept that family has to come first. The PCB thanks David for all his efforts and contributions, and wishes him best of luck in his future endeavours.”
The replacement of David Hemp will be announced in due course.

Don't see our women's cricket improving. There will always be objection to girls taking up the sport.
Regardless of how much money PCB spends in promoting women's cricket, it's not going to change.

Intikhab Alam the assistant coach of u19 northerns. He's never leaving PCB.
The first thing he will probably talk about the girl would be they are uneducated, they don't know how to dress or how to talk like he did about Pak men's team around 2010.
This has to be one of the toughest gigs in cricket.
I don't see any improvement in the Pakistan women's team since Hemp took over and that's largely down to the lacking skills and fitness of the players.
Why even bother wasting money?

Opener Sidra Amin and wicketkeeper Sidra Nawaz have earned recalls in the national side for the ACC Women’s T20 Asia Cup in Sylhet, Bangladesh next month. The 15-player squad unveiled by national women’s selector Asmavia Iqbal also includes uncapped all-rounder Sadaf Shamas.
There are three changes in the squad that featured in the tri-series in Ireland (that included hosts and Australia) and Birmingham Commonwealth Games in July-August. The players who miss out are Anam Amin, Gul Feroza and Iram Javed.
Pakistan squad: Bismah Maroof (c), Aimen Anwar, Aliya Riaz, Ayesha Naseem, Diana Baig, Fatima Sana, Kainat Imtiaz, Muneeba Ali (wk), Nida Dar, Omaima Sohail, Sadaf Shamas, Sadia Iqbal, Sidra Amin, Sidra Nawaz (wk) and Tuba Hasan
Reserve players: Nashra Sundhu, Natalia Pervaiz, Umme Hani and Waheeda Akhtar
The first phase of the tournament will be played on round robin basis following which the top four teams will qualify for semi-finals.
Selector Asmavia Iqbal: “I want to congratulate the 15 players selected for the all-important Asia Cup next month. These players have been selected after observing their performances in the recent practice matches in Lahore.
“Sidra Amin has been in good form of-late. She did well in the practice matches and became only the second Pakistan women batter to score two ODI centuries recently. Her presence at the top of the order will instil stability.
“We have also selected an additional keeper in Sidra Nawaz because of the long duration of the tournament. On these tracks, we need a specialist wicketkeeper as a backup for Muneeba Ali, in case she becomes unavailable.
“Sadaf Shamas did extraordinary well in the recent practice matches and we feel this was the right time to elevate her to the national side. I am sure she will prove to be a good addition to the national side. Her ability to bat in the middle order and bowl medium fast makes her a good fit in the side and promises to provide balance to the playing XI whenever she gets her chance.
“I had detailed conversations with the players who have been dropped. The decision to leave them out was taken considering their recent form and the conditions our team will encounter. They understand the areas they need to work on and I am sure they will continue to put in the hard yards and stage a strong comeback.”
Left-arm orthodox Nashra Sundhu, after missing the tri-series and the Commonwealth Games because of a shoulder injury, is one of the four players on standby in Pakistan. The other three are: Natalia Pervaiz, Umme Hani and Waheeda Akhtar.
The 15-player squad and the reserves will undergo 10-day camp at Lahore Country Club, Muridke from 18 to 27 September and the national side will fly out for Bangladesh on 28 September.
Following David Hemp’s decision to not to extend his contract, the Pakistan Cricket Board will start the search for the new head coach following the expiration of his contract in mid-October.
Player support personnel: Ayesha Ashhar (team manager), Saleem Jaffer (bowling coach), Mauhtashim Rashid (fielding coach), Muhammad Zubair Ahmad (analyst) and Rifat Gill (physiotherapist).

Bismah Maroof-led Pakistan are eager to showcase their talent, skill and temperament in the shortest format of the game.

Pakistan captain Bismah Maroof: “The conditions here are the same as at home, the pitches will help the spinners. We will try to make full use of the conditions and get our momentum going and start on a winning note.
“The tournament’s format gives us a number of matches, providing us a great help to prepare for next year’s ICC Women’s T20 World Cup.
“We are not going to take any team lightly and try to execute ourselves well to win tomorrow’s match.”
Right-handed batter Sidra Amin is included in the side as an opener in place of out-of-form Iram Javed. Commenting on her inclusion in the side and pairing up with Muneeba Ali, Bismah said, “We have tried a new pair in the opening position, I hope Sidra performs, her runs at the top will give stability to the batting order which can contribute in the team’s win.”

Mother-Daughter duo represents Pakistan in Women’s Asia Cup 2022 in Sylhet
Pakistan all-rounder Kainat Imtiaz and her mother Saleema Imtiaz are currently a part of the Women's Asia Cup in Sylhet. Kainat's mother officiated in her first international match on Saturday.
Pakistan women’s umpire Saleema Imtiaz, on Saturday, October 1, made her debut when she officiated in the Women’s Asia Cup match between India and Sri Lanka at the Sylhet Outer Cricket Stadium.
Saleema is the mother of Pakistan women’s all-rounder Kainat Imtiaz, who is also taking part in the ongoing T20 tournament in Sylhet. However, Imtiaz couldn’t break into the playing XI in Pakistan’s opening match against Malaysia on Sunday, October 2.
Nevertheless, after her mother made her debut as an umpire, Kainat was over the moon and said how proud she was of her loved one. She also expressed gratitude to her father for lending them support through thick and thin.
Kainat took to her Instagram handle and wrote, “Presenting my MOM as an UMPIRE for ACC Women’s Asia Cup 2022. I can’t be more proud of what she has achieved. Such a motivated person. It was always her dream to represent Pakistan, the dream I had been living for her until now. And today, finally, after a very long wait, she is going to represent Pakistan. We are going to represent Pakistan together. Super Excited. Allhumdulillah.”
“Many many congratulations to MY DAD who has supported us through every step of the way. Encouraged us, made us never quit, made us more focused and for being the best critic.”
It’s been more than a decade since Kainat made her international debut as a teenager. However, she has been in and out of the national team. The 30-year-old recently played in the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham.
In 15 ODIs and 20 T20Is, the Karachi-born Imtiaz has scored 265 runs and picked up 16 wickets.

Pakistan open their account in the ACC Women’s T20 Asia Cup by beating Malaysia by nine wickets with 11 overs to spare at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium (SICS) on Sunday morning.
Chasing a modest 58-run target, Pakistan opening batters provided a 45-run start to the run-chase. They collected 45 runs in the batting powerplay, before right-handed batter Sidra Amin fell on the last ball of the powerplay to Mahirah Izzati Ismail for 31. Sidra struck five fours during her 23-ball innings.
Her opening partner wicketkeeper-batter Muneeba Ali returned undefeated on 21 off 23 balls, smashing three fours with captain Bismah Maroof (eight not out, eight balls, one four).
Earlier, after opting to bowl first in an overcast condition, Pakistan bowlers made full use of the conditions as Diana Baig struck on the second ball of the innings – getting Malaysia’s captain Winifred Duraisingam out caught behind for no score. But it was the spinners that dominated the bowling side, Omaima Sohail (3-0-19-3), Sadia Iqbal (4-0-8-1) and Tuba Hasan (4-0-13-2) shared six wickets between. Malaysia’s Elsa Hunter unbeaten 29 off 51, which included three fours helped her side not to get bowled out and scored 57 for nine in 20 overs.
Pakistan will take on defending champions Bangladesh tomorrow. The match will be broadcast live on PTV Sports, the first ball be bowled at 0800 PKT.

Sylhet, 3 October 2022: Pakistan beat Bangladesh by nine wickets to win their second match in as many outings in the ACC Women’s T20 Asia Cup at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium (SICS) on Monday morning.
Today’s win against the defending champions Bangladesh put Pakistan at the top of the points table with four points. They will now face Thailand on Thursday, 6 October at the SICS Ground 1. The match will be broadcast live on PTV Sports, the first ball will be bowled at 0800 PKT.
Pakistan’s Bismah Maroof decision to bowl first after winning the toss paid dividends in the first over like yesterday’s match as right-arm fast Diana Baig dismissed Shamima Sultana for one. Spinners once again came into play, Nida Dar (4-0-19-2), Omaima Sohail (1-0-4-1) and Sadia Iqbal (4-1-10-1) shared four wickets between them. Diana bagged two wickets for 11 runs from three overs to restrict the hosts to 70 for eight in 20 overs. The match was stopped for a while in the 18th over due to rain, but resumed shortly without losing any overs in the match.
In reply, the openers provided a solid 49-run partnership for the first wicket. The pair of Muneeba Ali and Sidra Amin scored 40 runs in the powerplay which included five fours. Muneeba was the only batter to return back to the pavilion, scoring 14 off 19, hitting one four. The right-handed Sidra – who was included in the squad in place of Iram Javed, returned undefeated on a 35-ball 36, smashing four boundaries and was named player of the match. Bismah scored an unbeaten 12 off 20 and helped the side chased down the target in the 13th over.

PAK-W 116/5
THI-W 117/6
Why is it an upset? Thailand could have easily won a match against Pakistan in the last world cup. They scored 150 runs in 20 overs, and rain played spoilsport.
The biggest upset is when India loses a match against any one of the games. This should be the most one sided multinational tournament in all sports.
Natthakan Chantam >>> Any Pakistani batters any day.

Really big this for Thailand women's team, I remember them beating Bangladesh-W last year in T20 WCQ which was later scrapped due to covid, denying them a chance to qualify.
