ENG-W set to clash with PAK-W in a high-stake ODI series (X.com)

After a clean sweep in the T20I series, the England Women's team will now clash with the Pakistan women's team in the first ODI of the three-game series tomorrow at the County Ground of Derby from 5.30 PM onwards.

ENG-W's form in the 50-over format has been staggering, whereas PAK-W is yet to win an ODI game against England on English soil.

ENG-W vs PAK-W: Team Previews

England Women

England Women's team established its unshakable dominance on their home turn by exposing Pakistan women's shortcomings in the three-game T20I series.

While the hosts were clinical in the T20Is, their recent form in ODIs have been equally threatening. The English side won a three-game ODI series against New Zealand away from home and jumped to second spot in ICC team rankings.

Additionally, with the T20I series win, ENG-W will enjoy the winning momentum as Heather Knight and her troops will look to further demolish an already dispirited PAK-W side.

Pakistan Women

Pakistan Women's cricket team were humiliated by the English side as they were swept in the T20I series. The visitors badly missed the services of Bismah Maroof, who announced retirement earlier this year.

Nida Dar, meanwhile, the newly minted captain is still adjusting to her new role as Pakistan seem in a rebuilding phase.

That being said, while the ODI series is a new dawn and a fresh start, past records stand against them. In six ODIs played on English soil, PAK-W are yet to win a single game, and hence, the bad history will put them further under pressure.

Regardless, PAK-W have nothing to lose and are likely to fight tooth and nail to ensure a competitive fight in the 50-over format game.
