A disciplined
effort from the Pakistan Women seamers ensured their team got off to a winning
start against Ireland Women in Doha, securing a 110-run victory in the process.
Pakistan batted
first, but continually lost wickets throughout the innings. Nahida Khan was one
of only two batsmen to score more than 20 runs, as Ireland delivered 51 extras
to bolster their score to 183 for 9 after 50 overs. Jennifer Gray was the pick
of the bowlers with 3 for 40.
The Pakistan
seamers made light work of the Ireland top and middle order, as only three
batsmen crossed into double figures. Opener Clare Shillington top-scored with
29 as Ireland were routed for just 73 in 31 overs. Sadia Yousuf took best
figures of 3 for 16.
