Pakistan Women vs Ireland Women 3rd T20I 2025 – Match Preview and Highlights

Pakistan Women vs Ireland Women 3rd T20I 2025 – What to Expect

Fans are buzzing as the third T20 International between Pakistan Women and Ireland Women rolls around. Both sides have shown flashes of talent in the first two games, and this match could swing the series one way or the other. If you’re wondering who might make the difference, keep reading – we’ll break down the line‑ups, the biggest players to watch and where you can catch the live feed.

Key Players and Possible Line‑ups

Pakistan’s batting order leans on the experience of Nida Dar and the power of Javeria Khan. Dar’s steady knock in the first two games gave Pakistan a solid platform, while Khan’s big hits can change the game in a few balls. On the bowling side, Masooma Junaid brings swing that can trouble the Irish batters, especially in the early overs.

Ireland’s strength comes from their all‑rounder Laura Delany, who can both steady the innings and bowl tight overs. The young opener Gillian Russell impressed with a quick fifty in the second T20, and she’ll be looking to build on that. Their pace bowler Lea Tahuhu (though originally from NZ, she is a guest player for this series) adds extra speed that could surprise the Pakistani side.

Match Situation and What It Means for the Series

The series currently sits at 1‑1, so this match is essentially a winner‑takes‑all. A win for Pakistan would give them a 2‑1 lead and clinch the series at home, while an Irish victory would level the series and set up a decider if a fourth game is planned. Both teams know the stakes, so expect aggressive batting and strategic bowling changes.

Weather isn’t a big concern in the venue – clear skies are forecasted, which means the match should go ahead without interruptions. The pitch is expected to be a medium‑fast surface, offering a little bounce for the batters and some turn for the spinners later on.
