Pak vs Ban W: Teams and key players
Pakistan will be missing experienced players Bismah Maroof and Nida Dar, but Fatima Sana is confident in her squad. “Teammates like Sidra Amin, Diana Baig, Nashra Sundhu, Aliya Riaz, and Muneeba Ali have already been part of past World Cups and bring calmness and experience,” Sana said. “At the same time, youngsters like Eyman Fatima, Shawaal Zulfiqar, and Natalia Parvaiz bring fresh energy and skills that add depth to our team.”
Bangladesh, led by Nigar Sultana, have grown as a unit since their maiden World Cup in 2022. “Earlier we were inexperienced and unfamiliar with winning on a big stage. However, since then, we have played a lot of cricket both at home and abroad, and now we know how to win matches in tournament settings,” Sultana said. Key players to watch in the Bangladesh squad include 17-year-old pacer Nishita Akter Nishi and all-rounder Sumaiya Akter, both of whom played in the U19 T20 World Cup earlier this year.
