Women’s ODI WC Qualifiers: Pakistan And West Indies Secure Hard-fought Victories
At Lahore City Cricket Association: Fifties from Muneeba Ali and Aliya Riaz helped Pakistan secure a six-wicket win over Scotland in a rain-affected day in the 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup Qualifiers, while West Indies captain Hayley Matthews took another four-wicket haul to help her side beat Ireland by just six runs on Friday.
At Lahore City Cricket Association Ground, Diana Baig and Sadia Iqbal gave Pakistan a flying start by removing openers Abbi Aitken-Drummond (1) and Pippa Sproul (9) respectively. The Bryce sisters – Kathryn and Sarah - put on 51 runs for the third wicket before the latter was dismissed for 21 by Nashra Sandhu and was followed by Ailsa Lister’s quickfire 31 being ended by Sadia.
Kathryn was the linchpin of Scotland’s batting efforts, hitting an important 91 off 96 deliveries, laced with 10 fours and a six. She became Fatima’s fourth wicket of the match in the last over, where Priyanaz Chatterji and Chloe Abel also fell in quick succession, as Scotland posted 186/9 in 32 overs.
