Following their elimination from the Women’s World T20 tournament in the Caribbean, Pakistan and Ireland have agreed that more cricket will lead to better performances across the sport.

Pakistan’s captain, Javeria Khan said she was proud of the way the girls performed and accepted that they have played better cricket throughout the world cup. Matches have been played in Guyana, Antigua and St Lucia.

“The kind of cricket these girls played, they are not given the kind of exposure and they have played better cricket throughout the world cup and we made mistakes but we grow as a unit with more matches we play but this team was good in this world cup”, Khan stated, while pointing out “our issue was batting but this tournament we initially were not able to score 100 runs but this time we were able to improve”.
