LAHORE: Rain denied Pakistan Women and Ireland Women valuable match practice when their final tri-nation T20I series match in Dublin was abandoned without a ball being bowled on Thursday. The West Indies won the series on better net run-rate after finishing level with Ireland on 10 points, while Pakistan ended third with four points from two no-results.

Pakistan were already out of contention for the title but had hoped to get some final match practice before leaving for Birmingham, where they face India in their opening ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 match on 14 June. Persistent rain ensured that was not possible.

The Dublin leg proved a disappointing one for Pakistan. They lost to the West Indies by 25 runs and then to Ireland by seven wickets in their two completed matches. Chasing 200 against the West Indies, they managed 174 for eight, while against Ireland they set a 177-run target that was overhauled with five balls and seven wickets to spare.

Saira Jabeen was Pakistan’s leading run-scorer in the series, aggregating 73 runs in three innings. Muneeba Ali and Fatima Sana scored 71 and 69 runs respectively, while Ayesha Zafar and Rameen Shamim took four wickets apiece.
