In Match 4 of the ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifier 2025, hosts Pakistan will take on Scotland at the Lahore City Cricket Association Ground, on the 11th of April 2025. The game is scheduled to begin at 10 AM IST and promises an exciting contest as both teams enter the match with a win under their belt.
Pakistan began their campaign on a strong note, defeating Ireland by 38 runs. Diana Baig led the charge with a fiery spell, picking up a crucial wicket haul to derail Ireland’s chase. Earlier, Sidra Amin and Aliya Riaz laid a solid foundation for the hosts with composed half-centuries, while Nashra Sandhu spun her way to a three-wicket haul to seal the victory.
Scotland, on the other hand, pulled off a thrilling 11-run win over the West Indies. Sarah Bryce anchored the innings with a calm 55, supported by Megan McColl’s handy 45, guiding Scotland to a competitive total of 244. Katherine Fraser starred with the ball, claiming three wickets to hold off the West Indies, who despite a valiant unbeaten century from Hayley Matthews, fell short at 233.
Head-to-Head:
Since Scotland gained ODI status in May 2022, Pakistan and Scotland have not faced each other in either ODIs or T20Is. However, they did meet in a warm-up match during the 2024 ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier, where Scotland defeated Pakistan by eight wickets.
