ENG-W vs PAK-W Match 16 Results

5:01 PM IST Right then, that’s a wrap from this rain-affected yet entertaining clash, where Pakistan Women will feel hard done by, but England Women got away with one here. Up next in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025, defending champions Australia Women take on a spirited Bangladesh Women side that has earned plenty of praise for their fight and determination this tournament. The match is set for 16th October, Thursday, at 9.30 am GMT at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam, India. Don’t forget to tune in early for all the pre-match build-up. Until then, take care and goodbye!

5:01 PM IST Fatima Sana, the skipper of Pakistan Women, expressed her mixed feelings about the match, stating that the pitch was conducive for pacers and her team had a chance to win. She praised Muneeba and Omaima's batting efforts but emphasized the need for improvement in Pakistan's batting department to secure wins in future matches.

5:01 PM IST England Women captain Nat Sciver-Brunt praised Pakistan's bowling, highlighting Fatima and Diana's impressive performance. She noted that the rain break affected the game, and England struggled to adapt to the seam-friendly conditions. Sciver-Brunt emphasized the need for players to replicate their practice in the game and prepare for the next match by assessing conditions and utilizing their skills effectively.

5:01 PM IST Time to hear from the two captains now...

5:00 PM IST The Pakistani openers began the chase with real intent, finding boundaries with ease and keeping the scoreboard ticking. Omaima Sohail took the aggressive route while Muneeba Ali played the perfect anchor, as the pair added 33 runs in the revised six-over Powerplay and looked well on track to cruise past the target. But just when things were falling into place, the rain returned to spoil the party. Play stopped at 34/0 in 6.4 overs, and it never resumed. With the points shared, England Women move to the top of the table on a better NRR than Australia, but will have to improve a lot with the big games coming up. While Pakistan open their account, though they’ll surely see this as a missed opportunity to claim a famous first-ever WODI win over England.

4:44 PM IST UPDATE - 4.29 pm GMT - It's not looking good! The rain continues to fall, and the covers remain on the field. The cut-off time for a 20-over game is 4.44 pm GMT, which is about 15 minutes from now. Also, if we do get back and it is a 20-over contest, the revised target for Pakistan Women will be 79 runs. However, it looks very unlikely, and we are afraid we are moving towards the inevitable here.
