Not a bad side as far as I know, but one with far less of a chance of prospering in the tournament than England. Also, average runrates in the women's game are generally very low compared to their male counterparts, so scoring 185 in this match is the equivalent of a men's side being about 230/240 for 2
Yes.
And even if they weren't, England are on for a score of around 350, that's a big ask in women's cricket

if we get 350 then they will be nearer 100/1
Maybe worth £2

Sky looking pretty ominous in the feed, floodlights are on.

Pakistan women are below Ireland women in the world rankings.
377-5 is the fifth highest ever score in a 50 overs women's game (one less than England managed against the same opposition last year - Pakistan were 166 a/o in that game).

As it seems the game is highly unlikely to complete due it being practically dark, do any of you cricketeering types know roughly how many runs Pakistan would need to win using the Jack Duckworth method? Might have a wee wager on Pakistan if it's something reasonable.

AAAH that's why the odds are so long.

It's more that Pakistan have absolutely no chance. Their highest ever total in an ODI is 280 against Ireland and their totals in the three matches against England last year were 164, 165 and 166.

Rain's stopped play. Ayesha Zafar on 56. Looks like that's that for the day then.
