Pakistan will be desperate for a win to end their T20I losing streak, while Malaysia will be looking to maintain their winning streak. Both teams will consider using spinners in the game, based on how they have performed in previous games.

From the Pitch Report PAK vs ML: Women’s T20 Asia Cup Match 3

As seen in the first two games, the surface at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium initially favors the bowlers before the batters take advantage. It can become a batting paradise for the chasing side, so the captain who wins the toss will prefer to bowl first.

Players to watch for:

Sidra Ameen: Not only the Pakistani opener is in great form in white-ball cricket, but also is backed with a series of good knocks from her previous outings. Sidra Ameen would look to give her side the desired start by preserving her wicket in the game.

Tuba Hasan: In the absence of key bowlers like Fatima Sana and Nida Dar. Tuba Hasan will be expected to step up. The Team would expect her to get quick wickets as the pitch in Bangladesh is spinner friendly. She will have to be consistent throughout and take advantage of the conditions.

Prediction for the game:

It will be challenging for Malaysian Women. When they take on Pakistan Women in the opening game of the Women’s Asia Cup T20 2022. Pakistan is having a number of experienced players on them when they take on the Malaysian side.
