The wait for the Women’s Asia Cup is almost over. After tying the series against SA Women, India Women are ready to take on Pakistan Women on the first day of the Women’s Asia Cup 2024. The 2nd T20I of the tournament will be played at Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium, Dambulla on the 19th of July from 7 pm onwards. The fans will be glued to the TVs when these two teams lock their horns against each other.
India Women recently tied their T20 series against SA by 1-1. This came after they beat the visitors in the ODI series and the one-off Test. In the final game of the series, India Women restricted SA Women to 84 runs. All thanks to Pooja Vastrakar who took 4 wickets for 13 runs. Smriti Mandhana (54*) and Shafali Verma (27*) ed an unbeaten partnership of 88 runs to help India win the game by 10 wickets.
On the other hand, Pakistan Women lost the series 3-0 against England Women. In their last game before the Asia Cup, Pak Women let England Women score 176 runs. Diana Baig and Nida Dar took 3 wickets each. Dar then scored 29 runs with the bat. But the slow scoring rate cost Pak Women the match by 24 runs. This was Pakistan Women’s eighth loss in the last nine games they played.
Both India W and Pakistan W last played against each other in the World Cup 2023. Batting first Pak Women scored 149 runs for the loss of 4 wickets. Skipper Bismah Maroof scored 68 runs in 55 balls for Pak Women. Jemimah Rodrigues (53*) and Richa Ghosh ( 31*) then punished the sloppy Pakistan to help India win the game by 7 wickets.
India Women have always kept the upper hand when it comes to playing against the Pakistan Women. They have 11 wins in 14 T20Is played against their rivals so far.

India Women’s Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur will be eying to start the Asia Cup on a winning note. Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma will start the innings. Mandhana has 3320 T20I runs at a strike rate of 121.83. Verma who is known for her hitting, has 1748 T20I runs at a strike rate of 129.48. The duo have scored 556 runs in 10 games they have played this year. Dayalan Hemalatha will come at number three. In her last 5 T20Is, Hemalatha has scored 123 runs at a strike rate of 135 - the highest among the batters from both teams.
Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur will come in the middle with Richa Ghosh and Jemimah Rodrigues. Kaur has 140 runs in the last 6 T20Is. Richa Ghosh will be playing the role of an anchor in the middle. Ghosh has 333 runs in 16 T20I since 2023 at a strike rate of 134.27. Jemimah Rodrigues also has 400-plus runs since the last year for India Women. She scored a half-century in the only innings she played against SA Women in the last series.
Deepti Sharma will lead the bowling attack with Radha Yadav. Sharma has 34 wickets since 2023 at an average of 5.60. Pooja Vastrakar will be the bowler to watch out for. Vastrakar took 8 wickets in the series against South Africa and was awarded the Player of the series trophy. Radha Yadav has 16 wickets in the 8 T20Is played this year at an economy of 5.97.

It will be a tough game for Pakistan to start their Asia Cup Campaign. Gull Feroza and Sidra Amin will open the innings for them. Amin has 248 runs in the last 9 games. Whereas Firoza has scored just 102 runs in 7 games. Pakistani openers have a strike rate of below 100 this year. This can provide them with costly batting against the lethal Indian bowling attack. Munneba Ali might come at number three. She is Pakistan’s second-leading run-scorer this year with 149 runs at a strike rate of 105.67.
All-rounder skipper Nida Dar is going through a rough patch with her batting. Dar has 94 runs in 7 innings at a strike rate of 102.17. But with the ball, she is the leading wicket-taker for Pakistan Women. Dar has 10 wickets at an economy of 7.84. The biggest concern with Pakistan Women’s batting unit is none of them have scored at a strike rate above 105. They have added Omaima Sohail and Iram Javed to boost their batting attack but again, they both have a strike rate below 85.
Sadia Iqbal will lead the bowling unit with Dar and Diana Baig. Iqbal also has 10 wickets this year at an economy of 5.96 - the lowest among her teammates. She took 3 wickets and was awarded the player of the match trophy in Pakistan Women’s only win in T20Is this year which came against West Indies Women. Pakistan might include uncapped left-arm pacer Tasmia Rubab in the squad who impressed the selectors with 12 wickets in the National Women's One-Day Tournament 2023-24 followed by four wickets at an economy rate of 6.36 in the National Women's T20 Tournament 2023-24.

The weather will be cloudy and humid. The temperatures will be between 24°C and 33°C. It’s a slightly windy day with no chance of rain.
Traditionally, the pitch is known for being slow and low, offering significant assistance to spinners as the game progresses. The surface tends to dry out quickly, creating cracks that aid spin bowlers in extracting turn and bounce. Batsmen may find it easier to score during the initial phase of the game when the pitch is fresh and hard.
