Women’s T20 WC: We Will Try To Be Calm, Not Take Much Pressure, Says Pakistan's Fatima Sana
T20 World Cup: Pakistan captain Fatima Sana said her team will try to be calm and not take much pressure on themselves ahead of a crunch clash against India in the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024 on Sunday afternoon. Fatima was top-notch in her all-rounder roles – a knock of 30 and figures of 2-10 - in guiding Pakistan to a 31-run victory over Sri Lanka in their opening Group A game at Sharjah. With their confidence on a high, Pakistan will be aiming to make it back-to-back wins against an Indian team, who were consigned to a 58-run defeat by New Zealand.
“There is no such pressure. Because there will be a crowd and the atmosphere will be like this, there will be a little pressure on the girls. But we will try to be calm and not take much pressure.

She also said Pakistan are keen to show their aggressive brand of cricket with the bat. Read More...
