On October 5, India W vs Pakistan W match in the 2025 ODI Womens World Cup took place at the R. Premadasa International Cricket Stadium in Sri Lanka. This was the 12th ODI match between the Indian Women’s team and the Pakistani Women’s team, and this was also the fifth match in ODI Women’s World Cup history between these two teams. The Pakistani Women’s team won the toss and decided to bowl first. The pitch was very slow and sluggish; as a result, this pitch was very suitable for the spinners.
The Indian Women’s team started their innings with a 45+ runs opening partnership between Pratika Rawal and Smriti Mandhana. However, they lost a couple of wickets in the middle overs. The highest score from India was scored by Harleen Deol, who scored 46 runs in 65 balls. The Indian Women’s team was able to score 247 runs for 10 wickets in 50 overs. On the other hand, the Pakistani Women’s team’s chase began very poorly, as they lost three wickets very early. The highest score from Pakistan was scored by Sidra Ameen, who scored 81 runs in 106 balls. Despite Sidra Ameen’s brilliant performance, the Pakistani Women’s team kept losing wickets in the middle overs. The Indian Women’s team bowled out the entire Pakistani Women’s team for 159 runs in just 43 overs.
The player of the match award was awarded to Kranti Gaud for her brilliant bowling performance; she took 3 wickets by giving just 20 runs in 10 overs. With this massive win, the Indian Women’s team has continued their winning streak over the Pakistani Women’s team. They have won 12 straight ODI matches against Pakistan. After winning the match, both teams refused to shake hands with each other. This no-handshake policy started in the 2025 Asia Cup when the India team refused to shake hands with the Pakistani team, because of the recent conflict between India and Pakistan.
