Hello tweeps ๐
I havenโt been around much lately, but canโt skip my yearly Pakistan Womenโs Cricket review. 2025 had its moments, and my heartโs still with this team.
P.S. Miss my PWCT fam โ drop your thoughts, feedback & nominations.

PAK-W at 2026 WT20 so far!
Batting:
Lowest total of 86 and highest of 126/9
Big collapses in all games
Bowling:
Have conceded 2nd-joint highest ever total in WT20Is
Have not bowled out opponents once
Run-Outs while Batting: 8
Fielding: 4 big drops
Slow over-rate penalty: 1
Fatima Sana, one of the most high-impact batters in world cricket. Hit a fifty when PAK were 45/7 vs SA. Now even she is getting dragged down by horrific strategies, poor selections from the coaches & always being asked to bat with tail.
Sack Wahab Riaz before it's too late ๐
Sorry don't buy the "coaching staff should not be altered frequently" thing.
If every dept of team is on rapid decline & results are disastrous,heads must roll. Process without progress is nothing
Bearing in mind, coach was hired without any coaching pedigree, largely on nepotism
- On the money, Umar.
Consistency is needed. Coaching staff should not be altered frequently. Yes, they need a domestic structure. They should play against good teams, and lastly the fans should be decent in their criticism.
Saira Jabeen, 25 yo. Just 3 int'l matches(vs ZIM) before making the WT20 squad. Bats at No.4 vs IND, dropped next game mainly over a dropped catch, back in XI to bat at No.7 vs BAN, then at 1-down vs AUS.
Just a microcosm of Wahab's social experiment on PAK Women's Team.
matches INCREASED????
Among all 12 teams at the ongoing WT20, PAK-W played the fewest T20Is in between the 2024 and 2026 editions. Here is breakdown:
PAK: 11
sl: 13
sco: 14
nz: 16
ban: 18
eng, wi: 20
sa: 21
ind: 24
ire, ned: 27
I got so much disassociated with PAK Men's team after 2024 WT20. On verge of having same feel for PAK Women's
That's how much Naqvi-Wahab led regime has done damage to loyal fan like me
P.S: I like players, have empathy but as team I can't associate much with it under goons
WI: 199/6 (Tri-Nation Series) โ May 2026
AUS: 199/7 (WT20) โ TODAY
These are now the 2nd and 3rd highest totals conceded by Pakistan Women in a T20I โ both coming under Wahab Riaz's tenure. The record remains with ENG-W: 213/5 at the 2023 WT20.

Batting getting worse every game. Bowling being taken apart too. Running between wickets is beyond comical. Fielding overall been poor
GET WAHAB GONE TONIGHT
