Thank you Raji for the thread and for tagging me.

It is going to be a highly competitive match and both teams will try to win.

It is going to be a high voltage match for sure. The Harmanpreet Kaur-led side currently sit at the bottom of their Group’s pints table with the negative Net Run Rate (NRR) of -2.900 and they will look to move up the table with a win over arch-rivals Pakistan. Pakistan sit comfortably at the second spot with the NRR of +1.550 and will look to maintain it.

"Every Game Is Crucial For Us": Jemimah Rodrigues Ahead Of Women's T20 World Cup clash Against Pakistan

The stakes are always high when India face Pakistan in international cricket and it's no different this time around with mixed fortunes for both sides in their opening group matches.

Ahead of the much-awaited clash against the arch-rivals Pakistan Women in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2024, India Women batter Jemimah Rodrigues said that every game is important for Women in Blue as they lost the last game against New Zealand Women by 58 runs. The stakes are always high when India face Pakistan in international cricket and it's no different this time around with mixed fortunes for both sides in their opening group matches.

India would have been banking on a victory first-up against New Zealand and won't want to drop a second consecutive match at the tournament, while Pakistan will be dreaming of what might be if they can make it two on the trot and inch closer to a maiden semi-final berth.

More will be expected of India's strong batting order in this contest, while Pakistan boast some decent depth in their own line-up and should not be underestimated.

"I think what we have been doing really well as a team is just sticking to the process and doing whatever it takes one game at a time. We know every game from here is so crucial for us. We know that. But at the same time, we're going to go one game at a time and just make sure we stick to our process and do our job well. And I think if we can do that, I think if we play our best cricket, I think we can win matches," Rodrigues said, as quoted by the ICC.

Further, Pakistan skipper Fatima Sana stated that the team will try to carry the momentum after winning the last game.

"First of all, no team is small or big because it is T20 format. The one who plays well, wins the match on the day. So, we will try to carry the momentum that we have gained from here. Obviously, we have three big teams ahead of us. We will try to give our best with them," Sana said.

Not much expectations after dismal performance against NZ. Still hoping for the best

Problem is now even after winning all the matches, chances for qualification are dismal (and winning against Australia by this team in itself is next to impossible). The NRR of India is gone way below redemption.

News brief: In the match against Sri Lanka, medium pacer Diana Baig only bowled one ball before she pulled up with what looked like a calf injury. It is understood that Baig did not train on the eve of the match and that she would be assessed on Sunday ahead of the game. India-Pakistan contests have rather been one-sided in favour of India. India have won five out of the seven matches they've played against Pakistan in T20 World Cups, with Pakistan last winning in the 2016 tournament. India have also dominated against them in T20s overall, having won 12 out of 15 games. Regardless, the encounter is expected to draw huge crowds, with over 10,000 tickets reportedly being sold for the game on Sunday.
