PAK v SL, ICC WWC 2009: Pakistan beat Sri Lanka by 57 runs
Mar 09, 2009
An all-round performance by Qanita Jalil helped Pakistan beat Sri Lanka by 57 runs in a low-scoring match of the ICC Women's World Cup at Manuka Oval, Canberra on Monday.
Electing to bat first, Pakistan posted 161-7 in 50 overs and later shot out Sri Lanka for 104 in 39.4 overs to win the match and strengthened their claim for a place in the Super Six stage.
Qanita was the star of Pakistan win as she first played a quickfire 19-run innings and then ripped through the Lankan top order, returning with a figure of 8-0-33-3. She was well supported by all-rounder Sana Mir who followed up her unbeaten 22 with 2-18.
Chasing 161 Sri Lanka made a tottering start as they were reduced to 28-3. Lanka skipper Shashikala Siriwardena stood amid the ruins, hitting a fighting 58 off 111 balls with eight fours but once she was removed by a smartly run-out by Javeria Khan, Pakistan took just 22 balls to wrap up Lankan innings.
