Whether it is the scorching heat of summers or the chilly afternoons of January, Pakistanis love cricket. The women’s cricket team women won the series against Sri Lanka, whereas the Men’s cricket team won against West Indies. Both the teams have set the cricket field on fire by giving exceptional performances.
Women’s Cricket team
Pakistani women’s cricket has been giving great performances and we are truly proud of them. Despite the lack of support, they have become role models to the young girls.
Bismah Maroof has been doing wonders being a mom and handling the responsibility on the grounds as well. She has made records along with Sidra Ameen. Sidra Ameen was also the player in the match. Bismah and Tuba Hassan has been nominated for the player of the month, which in itself is a big achievement.
Bismah at the top! 📈
Captain Bismah Maroof today overcame Javeria Khan's run tally (2885 runs) to go to the top of the list. No Pakistan batter has scored more runs than her tally of 2891 runs in WODIs!#PAKWvSLW | #Cricket pic.twitter.com/dNW5buyYP5

Men’s Cricket Team
The Pakistani Men’s Cricket team is also on fire this hot summer. The scorching heat in Multan did not deter them from winning. The fans were equally excited, and the stadium was fully packed. Babar Azam, as usual, scored runs with making records. Khushdil Shah, Imam-ul-Haq, Muhammad Rizwan, Shaheen Afridi, and Shadab Khan played their part in the team’s win.
Babar Azam made a record by making 50-plus runs in the last nine innings. He is the second player after Sangakkara to score four centuries consecutively. He has scored six centuries.
No.1 batter for a reason 💪

10 consecutive ODI series wins for Pakistan against the West Indies.
