Pakistan’s Coach Reflects on Women’s T20 World Cup Exit<\/strong><\/p>\n Pakistan’s coach, Wahab Riaz, expressed disappointment after his team\u2019s early exit from the Women\u2019s T20 World Cup. On Saturday, Pakistan faced a 23-run defeat against Bangladesh at the Rose Bowl in Southampton, which meant they were knocked out of the tournament.<\/p>\n Chasing a target of 124 runs, Pakistan started strong at 69 for 2 after 11 overs. However, they suffered a sudden batting collapse, ending the match at just 100 for 8.<\/p>\n Wahab emphasized that the team\u2019s struggles were self-inflicted rather than due to superior performance from their opponents. He highlighted the team’s inability to manage pressure, noting similar issues during their earlier matches.<\/p>\n Following the defeat, which left Pakistan winless in the tournament, Wahab said, \u201cIt’s really disappointing to be out of the World Cup. I believe that we have let ourselves down more than being outperformed by other teams. The last few games were ours to win, but we couldn\u2019t rise to the occasion.”<\/p>\n Pakistan’s Batting Woes<\/strong><\/p>\n Pakistan’s troubles with batting were evident through the tournament. In their match against India, they were initially in a solid position at 51 for 1 before losing several quick wickets. Against South Africa, they stumbled to 50 for 8, as a fierce bowling attack broke their momentum.<\/p>\n Captain Fatima Sana put up a commendable fight against South Africa, scoring 55 runs and taking three wickets, but her efforts weren’t enough. In their match against Bangladesh, Pakistan started well with a solid 49-run opening partnership but once again fell apart, leading to their elimination.<\/p>\n With three losses under their belt, Pakistan aims to put a better performance when they face Australia in their next match on June 23, followed by a game against the Netherlands on June 27. <\/p>\n The team hopes to finish the tournament on a positive note, aiming to regain some pride in their remaining fixtures.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Pakistan’s Coach Reflects on Women’s T20 World Cup Exit Pakistan’s coach, Wahab Riaz, expressed disappointment after his team\u2019s early exit from the Women\u2019s T20 World Cup.
