Pakistan was on the backfoot from the start of Bangladesh's chase. Tigress pacer Marufa Akhtar bowled the opener Natalia Parvez for only 3 runs of the team.

After that, opener Sidra Amin caught Rabeya Khan's whirlwind for a personal 9 runs. Later, Muniba Ali and captain Nida Dar also returned within a short time.

But he could not stand seeing the frequent departure of his teammates. Bismah was caught by wicketkeeper Jyoti for 30 off Fahima Khatun’s bowling. In the end, Iram Javed and Umm Hani tried for a while but the visitors could not avoid defeat. Eram scored 15 and Umm Hani scored 14 runs.
