Pakistani Women’s Cricket Squad aims for unbroken streak in ODI

Led by Nida Dar, the Pakistan women’s cricket team is set to channel the success of their T20I series as they face off against the New Zealand women’s team in the upcoming three-match ODI series, commencing on Tuesday at the John Davies Oval in Queenstown.

The second and third ODIs are scheduled for December 15 and 18, respectively, in Christchurch.

The opening ODI is slated to kick off at 11 am local time, while the subsequent two matches in the series will commence at 1400 local time.

This ODI series holds significance as part of the ICC Women’s Championship 2022-25, with Pakistan securing the fifth position, garnering 14 points from 15 matches in the championship. The hosts, on the other hand, stand in the sixth spot, accumulating 12 points from an equal number of games.

In the head-to-head encounter, the two teams have played 14 ODIs, with the hosts emerging victorious on 13 occasions. Pakistan’s solitary win came in Sharjah in 2017, where captain Sana Mir’s exceptional all-round performance earned her the title of Player of the Match. As the teams brace for another showdown, the Pakistani women aim to rewrite history and secure a triumphant start to the ODI series.
