Pakistani women cricketers are optimistic about their preparations for the upcoming ICC Women\u2019s T20 World Cup 2024, scheduled to take place in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from October 3.
\nAccording to details, players Touba Hasan, Najiha Alvi, and Tasmia Rabab expressed satisfaction with the benefits derived from the fitness camp in Lahore, citing similarities between Multan and Dubai\u2019s conditions.
\n\u201cWe gained significantly from the Lahore fitness camp. Our group is challenging, but we\u2019re confident in our abilities to perform well in the World Cup,\u201d Touba said.
\nNajiha echoed similar sentiments, highlighting the minimal difference between Multan and Dubai\u2019s conditions. \u201cPreparations are going smoothly, and I\u2019ve learned valuable skills in wicket-keeping.\u201d<\/p>\n
Tasmia, recently invited to the national team camp, expressed confidence in Pakistan\u2019s readiness. \u201cWe\u2019ve faced stiff competition before, but our preparations have us well-equipped to take on the best teams.\u201d
\nA total of 150 of the globe\u2019s most exciting players have gathered in the UAE for the ninth edition of a tournament that continues to grow in reach and impact.
\nThe ten teams will play 23 matches to decide which team will be crowned world champions, with Bangladesh and debutants Scotland contesting the opening game on October 3.
\nThe players will do battle across two of the world\u2019s leading cricket venues: Sharjah Cricket Stadium and Dubai International Stadium, which will test the array of talent in contrasting and intriguing ways.
\nThe opening game in Group A is a cracker, too, with Sri Lanka facing Pakistan in a re-run of the recent Asia Cup semi-final won by the former. World No.3 side New Zealand complete a fearsome pool.
\nIn Group B, South Africa will hope to be one of the closest challengers. South Africa\u2019s Group B clash with England will be on 7 October. Only the top two teams in the stacked, five-strong groups will make the semi-finals on October 17 and 18 in Dubai and Sharjah. The world will be watching on October 20 when two teams converge on Dubai for what promises to be an unmissable final.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
