Babar Azam plays cricket from Pakistan’s Mains team. And, the women’s cricket team there is Babar Azam’s lookalike. No, we are not such that we but Pakistani fans, who see Babar Azam in our country’s women’s cricket team opener Gul Feroza. He believes that Gul Feroza’s looks, his batting style is all like Babur. But this batsman, who is like or looking like Babar Azam, could not postpone Pakistan’s defeat against the world number 9 T20 team Ireland.
Ireland team did not play even 20 overs
Pakistan’s women’s cricket team is on a tour of Ireland these days. This tour is for the T20 series. The first match of the 3 T20 series was played on 6 August, in which Ireland batted first, whose inning was covered by Pakistani bowlers in 19.4 overs. Ireland scored 142 runs. Ola Prendergast scored 29 runs for Ireland. While opener and wicketkeeper batsman Amy Hunter was the highest run -scorer scoring 37 runs. Fatima Sana was the most successful bowler from Pakistan, who took 4 wickets for 26 runs in 4 overs.
Understand the difference between Pakistan and Ireland
Now Pakistan had a target of 143 runs. Pakistan’s stature is bigger than Ireland in women’s cricket. This difference between the two teams also goes on looking at their ICC T20 rankings, in which Pakistan is at number 8 as compared to number 9 Ireland. But, during the run chase, the story was exactly the opposite.
Babar Azam’s lookalike also could not save Pakistan
Gul Feroza and Muniba Ali, who were called Babar Azam’s looks for Pakistan, landed. But they were shattered before it became a partnership. Muniba Ali was dismissed for 5 runs. Now Gul Feroza got the support of Sidra Amin. But this too could not add more than 10 runs to the board. This time Babar Azam’s lookalike Gul Firoza, who scored just 5 runs.
Overall, Pakistan’s women’s team, which had more international experience with Ireland, could not even cross the threshold of 30 runs away. As a result, Pakistan’s team could score 131 runs by playing 20 overs and saving 1 wicket in hand. Ireland won this match by 11 runs. In this victory, Player of the Match became 23 -year -old Irish player Orala Prendergast, who took 29 runs with the bat and also took Pakistan’s 3 wickets with the ball.
So far 15… 10 Pakistan won, 5 Ireland
