Pakistan Women’s Cricket Team: Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 has started. The Indian team led by Harmanpreet Kaur had to face defeat in the first match. New Zealand defeated India by a huge margin of 58 runs. At the same time, now the Indian team will face Pakistan on Sunday. Pakistan started its World Cup campaign with a win. Pakistan, under the captaincy of Fatima Sana, defeated Sri Lanka. Now the eyes of cricket fans are on India-Pakistan match, but we will try to know why despite having strong players, Pakistan gets scattered in big tournaments?
Fall apart under the pressure of big tournaments
Apart from Fatima Sana, Pakistan women’s cricket team has strong players like Nida Dar Aumma Sohail and Sadia Iqbal, but the team disintegrates in big tournaments like the World Cup. Cricket experts say that the Pakistani team fails to withstand the pressure of big tournaments. As a result, this team loses in big tournaments. Recently, Pakistan’s performance in the Asia Cup was disappointing.
PCB neglect and poor infrastructure
Pakistan women’s cricket players have not received salaries for the last four months. The situation of Pakistan Cricket Board is going from bad to worse. There is not much difference in the conditions of women’s and men’s teams. It is said that the players are suffering the consequences of Pakistan Cricket Board’s negligence and poor infrastructure. Due to all these reasons, Pakistani team easily surrenders in big tournaments despite having strong players.
playing less against bigger teams
Pakistan women’s team plays less with big teams. This team gets a chance to play with strong teams like India, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa only in tournaments like World Cup and Asia Cup. Therefore, the players of Pakistan women’s team get scattered against big teams and big names. Due to this, Pakistan has not got success in big tournaments.
