KARACHI: David Hemp c coach of Pakistan women cricket team is pleased with overall team performance against Sri Lanka.
“It is a big positive for us that the games that we won we had a different player of the match in each game which means we are not relying on one or two key players,” said David Hemp here on Monday.
Karachi, 6 June 2022: While disappointed at the 93-run loss in the third and final ICC Women’s Championship ODI against Sri Lanka on Sunday, Pakistan head coach David Hemp was overall pleased with the performance of his side that won the three-match T20I series 3-0 and the ODIs 2-1 against the touring Sri Lanka.
The tour culminated with Sri Lanka’s lone win of the tour on Sunday after the Bismah Maroof-led Pakistan had clean swept the T20Is and won the first ICC Women’s Championship series for the 2022-25 cycle at Karachi’s Southend Club, the venue that staged all six matches.
Pakistan collected four points from their two wins and currently sit on the top of the 10-team standings. Top six teams including the tournament hosts will qualify for the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025.
Hemp feels that Pakistan would have to keep the momentum going in the 50-over format as they are likely to get stiff competition from teams like Sri Lanka and South Africa for direct spots to the mega event in three years’ tim
