Gull Feroza and Muneeba Ali all but protected Pakistan’s spot in the semi-finals of the Women’s Asia Cup 2024 with their back-to-back century stands, fastening the first ever ten-wicket win in the tournament’s history. Pakistan’s spinners, who took seven of the eight wickets to fall, set up the ten-wicket thumping of UAE in Dambulla.
Sadia Iqbal was the pick of the bowlers with 2 for 11 at an reduced of 2.75. Nashra Sandhu and Tuba Hassan contributed with two-fors, the former taking the first two wickets after UAE’s openers made their way out of the powerplay and the latter dismissing Theertha Satish.
UAE scuffled their way to 103 for 8 but Muneeba and Feroza alarmed the total down with 35 balls to spare. As a result, UAE end their campaign with three losses.
