Pakistan take on Bangladesh as the two teams open their Women's World Cup 2025 campaign at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Thursday.
Bangladesh qualified for the World Cup after winning three of the five matches in Qualifier matches. This is only their second appearance in the marquee tournament after having made their debut in 2022. In the warm-up matches, Bangladesh managed to beat Sri Lanka by 1 run, while the match against South Africa was washed out due to rain.
Meanwhile, Pakistan will play all their matches in Colombo due to tensions with India. They entered the tournament after a dominant Qualifier tournament, winning each match comfortably. In their warm-up games, they lost by four wickets against South Africa, while the other match got washed out.
