The second match of the Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 is set to take place between Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The game will be played at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on October 4, at 2:00 pm GMT.

Both teams have a history of competitive matches, and this encounter promises to be no different. Their recent Asia Cup clash, where Sri Lanka emerged victorious, has added an extra layer of intrigue to this fixture.

Muneeba Ali will be a key player for Pakistan, while their bowling attack, led by Fatima Sana, will be crucial. Chamari Athapaththu will be the focal point of the Sri Lankan batting order. Their spin bowling combination of Sugandika Kumari and Inoka Ranaweera could be a game-changer.

The pacers may find it challenging to extract bounce early on, but as the match progresses, the pitch could become more conducive to seam bowling. Overall, it is anticipated to be a good wicket for batting, with the spinners playing a crucial role in the middle overs.
