England Women v Pakistan Women ? ICC Women's World Twenty20 2012 (3rd Match - Group A) ? Match Update
A half-century from Laura Marsh, followed by Holly Colvin?s 4-wicket haul, propelled the England Women to a comprehensive 43-run win over the Pakistan Women, in their first Group A match of the ongoing ICC Women?s World Twenty20, 2012, played at the Galle International Stadium in Sri Lanka today on September 27.
The Pakistan Women won the toss and elected to field first, but the team?s bowling attack lacked intensity. Sana Mir (4-0-20-2) remained the only notable bowler, and the team was unable to restrict their opponents entirely, with the England Women going on to post a sizeable total of 133.
Skipper Charlotte Edwards (45) and Player of the Match Laura Marsh (54) opened the innings for their side, and set up a mammoth 102-run stand, which put the England Women on steady ground. Both batters, however, were dismissed via run out by the 16th over, and the batting order failed to maintain the momentum after that.
Wicketkeeper Sarah Taylor (8) and Lydia Greenway (3) were both dismissed for paltry scores, and Danielle Wyatt (2) remained similarly insipid. By the 19th over, the England Women were at 124 for 5, and Arran Brindle (12), the only batter who managed to register a double-digit score after the dismissal of the openers, found herself bowled by Sana Mir on the final ball of the last over, with the England Women posting a final total of 133.
Following their solid batting display, the England Women launched an intense bowling attack, featuring Colvin (3.4-0-9-4) and Daniele Hazell (4-0-19-2) as key bowlers, while Marsh (4-1-14-1) and Katherine Brunt (3-0-17-1) chipped in with supporting performances.
The Pakistan Women put forth a lacklustre batting performance, with only Qanita Jalil (14), Nain Abidi (11), Javeria Khan (23), and Batool Fatima (11*) managing to register double-digit scores. Skipper Sana Mir put in a disappointing contribution of 6 runs, while Bismah Maroof, Marina Iqbal, and Sadia Yousuf all chipped in with just one run each.
Unable to stand up to the force of the England Women?s bowling attack, the Pakistan Women crumbled, all out at 90, granting their opponents victory by a margin of 43 runs.
