Unused Zealand vs Pakistan
Dubai, 6:00 p.m. local time
Unused Zealand team: Sophie Devine (captain), Suzie Bates, Eden Carson, Isabella Gaze, Maddy Green, Brooke Halliday, Fran Jonas, Leigh Kasperek, Amelia Kerr, Jess Kerr, Rosemary Mair, Molly Penfold, Georgia Plimmer, Hannah Rowe, Lea Tahuhu.
Pakistan Team: Fatima Sana (Captain), Muneeba Ali (Week), Aliya Riaz, Gull Feroza, Iram Javed, Nashra Sandhu, Nida Dar, Omaima Sohail, Sadaf Shamas, Sadia Iqbal, Sidra Amin, Syeda Aroob Shah, Tasmia Rubab, Tuba Hassan, Najiha Alvi.
Event method information: Unused Zealand bounced back from a heavy defeat against Australia and recorded a remarkable eight-wicket win against Sri Lanka to remain strong contenders for the semi-final. As for Pakistan, they started their campaign with a win against Sri Lanka but fell to defeats against Bharat and then Australia.
Temporary information: Due to Australia’s victory over Bharat, all Unused Zealand wants to do is beat Pakistan to qualify for the semi-finals. Their self-confidence will be boosted by Georgia Plimmer’s discovery method, plus Amelia Kerr being some of the runs and wickets. When the goal of 116 they chased ill against Sri Lanka was a minute one, it was about the batsmen bouncing back from being bowled out for 88 against Australia. They have the resources to travel with six bowling options, whether they stick with Fran Jonas or bring back Jess Kerr.
Pakistan will be buoyed by the return of their joint captain, Fatima Sana, who returned to the UAE soon after the death of her father. On the other hand, Diana Baig, one of their collision bowlers, has been ruled out with a calf injury and Najiha Alvi, her replacement, could get a chance to play.
Participant to observe: Rosemary Mair, with six wickets in three games, is Unused Zealand’s second-highest wicket-taker entering the sport. He was left wicketless against Sri Lanka but bowled 14 and conceded at least 4.25 per over. She has sidelined key batsmen like Alyssa Healy and Harmanpreet Kaur and has been handicapped as both a new and first-change bowler. Sana was hugely overlooked in Pakistan’s sport against Australia and is important to their chances even though they only have a chance of qualifying for the semi-finals. Sana scored at a strike rate of 153 and took four wickets with the ball, excepting the team leader competently.
