Pakistan produced a dominant all-round performance to defeat Scotland by six wickets in a rain-reduced ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifier match at the Lahore City Cricket Association (LCCA) Ground on Friday.
Fast bowler Fatima Sana led the way with the ball, claiming 4-23 in five overs, while batters Muneeba Ali and Aliya Riaz struck fluent half-centuries to steer the hosts to victory.
Scotland, put in to bat in the 32-overs-per-side contest, posted a competitive 186-9, thanks largely to a captain’s knock from Kathryn Bryce.
