ISLAMABAD: Pakistan captain Fatima Sana won the toss and opted to bowl first against England in their Women&rsquo;s World Cup clash on Wednesday at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.&nbsp;With conditions overcast but dry, Pakistan chose to make first use of what is expected to be a spin-friendly surface.&nbsp;&ldquo;The pitch looks good, and the spinners will want to take advantage,&rdquo; Sana said at the toss. &ldquo;We want to bat longer, build partnerships &mdash; and most importantly, finish off games.&rdquo;<div class="fr-embed"><div class="twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered" style="display: flex; max-width: 550px; width: 100%; margin-top: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px;"><iframe id="twitter-widget-2" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true" title="X Post" src="https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=false&embedId=twitter-widget-2&features=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%3D%3D&frame=false&hideCard=false&hideThread=false&id=1978387983855182119&lang=en&origin=https%3A%2F%2Fmain.d1wrm1qseko1cp.amplifyapp.com%2Farticles%2F&sessionId=1c4509d698960f2dc0520e0d0c8cd2a568cbcaa2&theme=light&widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&width=550px" style="position: static; visibility: visible; width: 550px; height: 704px; display: block; flex-grow: 1;" data-tweet-id="1978387983855182119"></iframe></div></div>Pakistan made two changes to their XI, bringing back experienced campaigners Omaima Sohail at the top of the order and Aliya Riaz, who slots in at No. 4.&nbsp;England, led by Nat Sciver-Brunt, would have preferred to bowl first too, but now face the task of setting a target in unfamiliar Colombo conditions.&nbsp;Sciver-Brunt confirmed that Lauren Bell and Sophie Ecclestone were ruled out due to illness, with Sarah Glenn and Em Arlott coming into the side.

Women’s Cricket World Cup: Pakistan opt to bowl against England

NEW DELHI: Women&#39;s cricket is set to take a giant leap as the World Cup begins Tuesday, with stars from eight nations aiming to break new ground both on and off the field.&nbsp;The tournament opens in Guwahati with co-hosts India and Sri Lanka ushering in what many believe could be a transformative moment for the women&#39;s game.&nbsp;The 13th edition of the tournament will have Pakistan playing all their matches in Colombo as part of a compromise deal that allows both India and Pakistan to play at neutral venues in multi-nation tournaments.&nbsp;The 50-over showcase boasts an unprecedented total prize purse of $13.88 million, surpassing even the $10 million awarded in the men&#39;s World Cup two years earlier.&nbsp;&quot;You do get the feeling this could be a seismic moment for the women&#39;s game,&quot; England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt said on the International Cricket Council website.&nbsp;&quot;I think we&#39;ll all look back on our careers when we&#39;re retired and mark the World Cup in India as a game-changer.&quot;&nbsp;Sciver-Brunt is seeking a fifth title for England, who were last winners in 2017 and lost in the final in 2022.&nbsp;Defending champions Australia, who have won a record seven Women&#39;s World Cups, enter as favorites but expect stiff competition, said captain Alyssa Healy.&nbsp;&quot;This is going to be the toughest World Cup we&#39;ve ever been a part of,&quot; said Healy.&nbsp;&quot;Australia has a rich history in this format and in World Cups, but I think every single team is going to be tough to beat.&quot;&nbsp;India, twice runners-up but never champions, are hunting an elusive maiden title in front of a cricket-obsessed home audience in the country of 1.4 billion people. Gender parityVictory could bring millions of new fans to the sport, further elevating its prominence.&nbsp;The past decade has seen women&#39;s cricket surge in talent and visibility.&nbsp;Australia&#39;s women&#39;s Big Bash League, launched in 2015, paved the way before a financial windfall arrived with India&#39;s Women&#39;s Premier League (WPL).&nbsp;Staged first in 2023, the WPL delivered the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) roughly $700 million in franchise and media rights alone.&nbsp;India&#39;s cricketing stars, including Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana, have become household names, attracting major sponsorships and wide media coverage.&nbsp;A move toward gender parity was championed by ICC chairman Jay Shah, who introduced equal match fees for women and men &mdash; a shift hailed as transformative by BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia.&nbsp;&quot;You cannot make out whether the boys are playing or girls,&quot; Saikia told AFP.&nbsp;&quot;The top-class skill and the technique will attract eyeballs on television and get the game more fans. Expect packed stadiums at centres across India,&quot; he added.&nbsp;On the pitch, this World Cup could witness a run-fest.&nbsp;Since 2022, participating teams have breached the 300-run mark 34 times, with Australia and India each surpassing 400 once.&nbsp;Young Indian fast bowler Kranti Goud, New Zealand batter Georgia Plimmer, England quick Lauren Bell and South African all-rounder Annerie Dercksen are tipped as players to watch.&nbsp;India are hosting the Women&#39;s ODI World Cup for the fourth time after 1978, 1997 and 2013.&nbsp;The final will be played on November 2 either in Mumbai or Colombo, depending on whether Pakistan go all the way.
