Asia Cup 2024, PAK-W vs UAE-W 9th Match, Group A Match Report, July 23, 2024

Throw it Pakistan women he chose to throw vs United Arab Emirates women

An unchanged Pakistan team won the toss and elected to bowl in a must-win match against the United Arab Emirates in the Asia Cup T20 tournament. Esha Oza, the UAE captain, also wanted to bowl but was happy to take what they got.

Pakistan lost their first match against India but beat Nepal by nine wickets. A win today would guarantee their place in the semi-finals while a defeat would leave them relying on India to beat Nepal later tonight, with the total number of runs in their favour. UAE are out of the race having lost their first two matches.

This match will be played at 6 pm in hot and humid Dambulla. The pitch has little grass and Isobel Joyce said the pacers will have to hit hard if they want to pull off a seam.
