New Zealand Women (NZ-W) and Pakistan Women (SL-W) are set to lock horns in match 19 of the ongoing Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, in Dubai on Monday, October 14.
The Sophie Devine-led side is just a step away from earning their semi-final berth. However, this game is not just important for them, as the Indian team will also have a close eye on the results of this match. White Ferns are currently in the third position in the tally with four points and a positive Net Run Rate (NRR) of 0.282. If the side manages to win this clash with a good margin they will go through.
However, their only hope will be that Tam India concedes a defeat at the hands of the defending champions, Australia. Meanwhile, Pakistan has not had a memorable tournament so far, losing two of the three games. But the Women in Green can play a huge role in deciding the future of New Zealand and India in the ongoing Women’s T20 World Cup. If Pakistan manages to win the game they might have similar points but due to their poor NRR, might not be in contention for the qualification race.

Pitch Report
The track at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium is well balanced as both batters and bowlers will get some assistance from the pitch. The conditions will assist the spinners, mainly due to the slowness of the track as the game progresses. Hence, for the skipper winning the toss, opting to bowl first and chasing the target could be a wise decision at this venue.
