Pakistan Women vs Sri Lanka Women Live ಸ್ಕೋರ್, 2nd Semi-Final of Women's Asia Cup T20, 2026

1 run, the on drive comes out now. The batter gets a run.

2 runs, the batter lofts this in the air over covers and gets a couple of runs for the team.

No run, just a mere push. But no space for a run.

Fine stop!

No run, this time the batter punches it off the front foot, but finds a fielder.

No run, just a mere push. But no space for a run.

Was that a chance? Dropped short, slower and at the hips. Zafar crouches to shovel it behind square leg but is early into the shot. The ball grazes her glove and pops up off her thigh pad but going towards the keeper, it takes a bit of the bat as well.

What a response from Chamari Athapaththu! She gets taken for a biggie, but wastes no time in hitting back. The Sri Lankan captain has the last laugh, removing Shawaal Zulfiqar soon after. One big hit answered with one big breakthrough. That's the captain's response! Ayesha Zafar is in next.

OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Chamari Athapaththu answers right back and she is pumped up, letting out a big roar. Zulfiqar's promising stay has been cut short. Not the best of balls, though by Chamari. This is pushed through, on the shorter side, down leg. Shawaal hops inside the line for the glance but gets a tickle on it. The keeper, Kaushini Nuthyangana, moves to her left and even though there is a healthy deflection, she is equal to the task.

SIX! Clean strike. Tossed up by Chamari, full and turning into the hitting arc for the right-hander. Zulfiqar gets down on one knee and clubs it over the deep mid-wicket fence for a biggie.

And again. Fired in at the pads, on a good length. Zulfiqar tries to shovel it away but is beaten for pace. Wide not given as the ball grazed the pads of the batter.

Gets away with it! Chamari Athapaththu starts with a loosener, a bit too short, turning down leg. Zulfiqar swivels and pulls it straight to short fine leg.

Sugandika Kumari continues to turn the screw from her end, producing another miserly over and keeping Pakistan's batters under pressure. Now comes the first bowling change, as expected, with captain Chamari Athapaththu bringing herself into the attack. The skipper is ready to have a say with the ball.

Nails another yorker, on off. Gull hurriedly gets her bat down. Toe-ends it to short third. Another tidy over by Sugandika Kumari.

No run, the cover drive is played but the result is a dot.

Shorter and on middle. Zulfiqar hangs back and wrists it in front of square on the leg side for one more run.

1 run, that is flicked off the back foot for a run.

Full and around the pads. Shawaal Zulfiqar attempts the sweep but fails to make any connection. A leg bye is taken as the ball goes off the pads, wide of short fine leg.

Very full, on middle. Gull digs it out down the deck. Sugandika Kumari dives to her right but cannot make the stop. They cross.

At last, Pakistan have found some breathing room, with a few boundaries breaking the stranglehold imposed by Sri Lanka early on. Shawaal Zulfiqar is beginning to show her intent, taking the attack on with greater freedom. This is an intriguing phase now, with Pakistan finally finding some momentum and Sri Lanka needing to quickly wrestle back control. Sugandika Kumari to continue...

FOUR! Hit hard and wide enough! A productive over for Pakistan as 14 runs come off it. Full and a hint of away shape, on off. Zulfiqar swings through the line and connects cleanly. Smashes it uppishly and the mid-off fielder is in business for a moment. She stretches her hands out to her left, but the ball stays out of her reach and rockets to the fence.

SIX! Off the top edge, but it still goes all the way. Mithali got away with a full toss earlier in the over but not this time. Sliding onto the pads, Zulfiqar gets low to swipe it away behind square leg but the ball is skied off a top edge behind square leg and it drops beyond the fence.

Nails the yorker, on off. Zulfiqar digs it out.

FOUR! Nicely done. Fractionally short, on off. Zulfiqar hangs back and lets the ball come on. Plays the short-arm jab uppishly but away from the reach of the mid-wicket fielder to her left for the first boundary of the contest.

Missed out! Mithali Ayodhya slips in a low full toss, on the pads. A boundary opportunity for Zulfiqar with fine leg up inside the circle but she picks out the short fine leg fielder.

Full and on off, driven to mid off.

Two overs of suffocation for Pakistan, and the pressure has finally told. Sri Lanka's disciplined start with the ball has been rewarded with an early wicket. The squeeze was building, and Pakistan have cracked under it. Gull Feroza walks in next, at number 3.

OUT! CAUGHT! Sri Lanka land the first blow. Muneeba Ali falls cheaply. Sugandika stays around the wicket for the left-hander and bowls it on a length, across off. Ali gets low and extends her hands to slam it over mid off but fails to get any sort of elevation. Mishits it flat towards Nilakshika Silva there, who takes the catch around her midriff.

Floated up, on off. Shawaal gets down on one knee and drags the lofted hit down to long on. They cross.

Shorter and darted in at the hips from around the wicket. Shawaal nudges it off the back foot to backward square leg.
