A blockbuster clash awaits at Lahore’s City Cricket Association Ground as Pakistan Women take on Bangladesh Women in the 14th match of the ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifier 2025. The fixture is scheduled to take place on April 19, Saturday, at 10 AM IST.
Pakistan, playing on home soil, has been a powerhouse, remaining unbeaten with four commanding victories, including an 87-run demolition of Thailand in their previous encounter. This win confirmed their place in the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025.
Bangladesh is also close to booking its ticket to India for the Women's World Cup 2025. With three wins in four games, they are practically one victory away from that feat. Even if they lose against Pakistan, they would have to ensure that their net run rate does not drop drastically, as Scotland and the West Indies can still level them on points.
Pakistan’s home support and bowling attack make them favorites, but Bangladesh’s fighting spirit could spark an upset in the penultimate match of the ICC Women's World Cup Qualifier 2025. All in all, a mouthwatering contest awaits.
