Pakistan Conclude Women’s World Cup Without a Win After Fifth Colombo Match Abandoned

Pakistan Finish Women’s World Cup Winless as Final Match Against Sri Lanka Abandoned

Pakistan ended their Women’s World Cup 2025 campaign on a disappointing note after their last group-stage match against Sri Lanka at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Friday, October 24, was washed out due to rain. They became the only team in the tournament to finish without a win.

Pakistan currently occupy seventh place in the points table with three points and a net run rate of -0.58, earning all their points from matches abandoned against Sri Lanka, Australia, and England. If Bangladesh beats India in their final match on October 26 in Navi Mumbai, Pakistan will finish at the bottom of the standings.

Team Changes and Match Details
With the outcome of the match inconsequential, Sri Lanka made two changes, bringing in Dewmi Vihanga for Udeshika Prabodhani, while Pakistan included Syeda Aroob Shah and Eyman Fatima in place of Sidra Nawaz and Fatima Sana.

The match was initially delayed due to rain and later reduced to a 34-over contest. Sri Lanka won the toss and chose to bat first. Pakistan’s openers, Omaima Sohail and Muneeba Ali, got off to a steady start, with Omaima hitting a boundary off Sugandika Kumari. Pakistan reached 18 without loss in 4.2 overs before rain returned.

Play briefly resumed, but another heavy downpour forced the umpires to call off the match at 8:06 PM local time, leaving the contest unfinished.

Sri Lanka Wrap Up Tournament
Sri Lanka concluded the tournament with five points and a net run rate of -1.035, registering just one win from seven matches.
