Karachi: After witnessing Pakistan and India warm up match in Men’s Twenty20 World Cup and eyeing for another Men’s Clash on 30th September in Super Eight clashes, women teams of both the countries get themselves ready for an enthralling contest in a Group A clash at the Women’s World Twenty20 in Galle on October 1.
Pakistan, India, Australia and England make up Group A of the women’s mega competition. The cricket fans from the subcontinent expect a nail biting India-Pakistan thriller where India has a upper hand.
While talking to media Tuesday afternoon, Indian Captain Mithali Raj said, “I don’t think too many people around the world get to watch an India-Pakistan women’s game live on television, so they don’t see the intensity.”
The same passion and excitement could be extracted from Pakistani skipper Sana Mir’s statement as she said, “We are really looking forward to the match. It is great to play India because the intensity and excitement are much higher. We have played India before and we have realized that it is as keenly fought a game as the match between our men’s teams. The October 1 clash will also be played with great zest.”
