Poor batting has costed the Pakistan Women’s team in the recent past, can they overcome their Weakness in this T20 World Cup

Pakistan Womens T20 WC Strengths and Weakness : The Women’s T20 World Cup is almost around the corner, and all of the teams are preparing to give it their all. Ten teams are participating in this year’s T20 world cup. The Pakistan Women’s Team will be the topic of discussion today. We’ll examine the team’s advantages and disadvantages.

In the ICC Women’s World Cup being held in South Africa, Pakistan is one of the teams that are viewed as favorites. Since the Ireland series and the ODI World Cup, the team hasn’t played a lot of cricket. Having said that, they have a number of strengths and weaknesses going into this event.

T20 Women’s World Cup: Now let’s look into the Strengths and Weaknesses of the Pakistan women’s team leading up to the T20 World Cup 

The Pakistan women’s team includes a few superstars who have given the team life and drove them to multiple finals in the recent past before the T20 World Cup in South Africa.

In their lineup, Pakistan has a number of top-notch all-around players who can contribute in both areas of the game. Veteran players Nida Dar and Aliya Riaz have a strong chance to affect the outcome of the match. 

Dar has participated in 126 T20Is, where she scored over 2000 runs and picked up over 120 wickets and Aliya Riaz is recognized for her ferocious batting. The batters are constantly on edge thanks to her fast bowling.

Their spin bowling attack, which is comparable to Bangladesh’s, is another of their advantages. Anam Amin is another option for them to take wickets, and Nida Dar is the team’s top spinner. The team will benefit from Nashra Sandhu’s left-arm spin throughout the World Cup.

T20 Women’s World Cup: The Spin Factor for Pakistan in the World Cup

The fact that practically every cricketer in the starting XI has participated in a decent number of matches is a positive thing for Pakistan going into the T20 World Cup in South Africa. Pakistan could suddenly emerge as a team to watch out for in this competition if the pitches turn out to be slow because their main strength is with the spin department.

T20 Women’s World Cup: Weaknesses of the Pakistan Women’s Team

Pakistan’s batting lineup frequently has been a disaster, and when playing against tougher opposition, they risk not scoring high enough totals. Additionally, their batters’ strike rates are not particularly impressive, which will boost the other sides. A score of 140–150 is no longer considered to be a significant one in T20 women’s cricket, but that is the best-case scenario.

As previously said, Pakistan has suffered in the T20 format as a result of its poor batting performances throughout the years. Javeria Khan and Bismah Maroof, two of their strong batters, have struggled along with the rest of the team. 

It becomes difficult for Pakistan to post even a fighting total if the seasoned pair leaves early. Pakistan’s weak batting often prevented them from winning despite having a strong bowling assault.

Anyways we’ll have to wait and watch how the Pakistani team does at the South Africa 2023 Women’s T20 World Cup, though. We predict Pakistan will advance to the T20 World Cup’s knockout stages based on the data. But given how difficult the competition is, don’t be surprised if they lose in the group stage.
