LAHORE: Pakistan continued their winning momentum ahead of the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier, defeating the West Indies by five wickets in their second warm-up match.

The team comfortably chased down the 189-run target, securing victory with 23 balls to spare. Pakistan’s chase of a modest 189-run target was propelled by superb batting performances from vice-captain Muneeba Ali and Natalia Parvaiz.

The duo anchored the chase, with Muneeba top-scoring with 87 runs off 113 balls, while Natalia contributed with a 53-run knock from 60 deliveries. Their partnership guided Pakistan to the target without much difficulty, losing only five wickets along the way. Gull Feroza also played a supporting role, contributing a crucial 28 runs to the chase.

Earlier, West Indies were restricted to 188/8 in their 50 overs, as Pakistan’s bowlers put on a disciplined display. Sadia Iqbal led the charge with the ball, claiming impressive figures of 3/21.
