Pakistan captain's anger erupted after losing to India, blaming these players for the defeat
IND W vs PAK W Match Highlights: After losing to India in the Women's World Cup, Pakistan captain Fatima Sana blamed her bowlers. She said it would have been better if they had restricted them to 200 runs.
The sixth ICC Women's World Cup 2025 match took place between India and Pakistan on Sunday at Colombo's R. Premadasa Cricket Stadium. India secured an emphatic 88-run victory over Pakistan. India batted first, scoring 247 runs in 50 overs, while Pakistan was all out for 159 in 43 overs. Pakistan's captain criticized her bowlers for the defeat, citing too many runs allowed in the death overs.
Captain Fatima Sana commented, "We gave away too many runs in the powerplay and conceded extra runs in the death overs. When I bowled, the ball seemed to be seaming. Dani (Diana Baig) was confused about seam and swing. I kept advising her, and I believe she'll be better in the next match. If we had restricted them to under 200, it would have been a better total for us."
She added, "I still think our batting was good, as the top five are experienced. They need to perform better and test themselves, as long partnerships are essential. We must assess conditions and adapt accordingly." She also praised Sidra Amin as a key, hardworking player.
