Pakistan finished the ICC Women’s CWCQ 2025 without defeat as Bangladesh achieved qualification through a thrilling finale against the West Indies in the last round of cricket matches.
Women’s CWCQ 2025: Pakistan Dominate, Bangladesh Hold On
Pakistan End on a High Note
The team from Pakistan finished their Women’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier 2025 run by defeating Bangladesh by seven wickets to close out a perfect five-match record. The Bangladesh line-up started off poorly when they lost their first three wickets during the initial seven overs. During the match Fargana Hoque followed by Dilara Akter then skipper Nigar Sultana Joty was removed from the game at low prices.
Sharmin Akhter tried to steady things but was dismissed for 24. Ritu Moni provided resistance with a gritty 48, but her dismissal just shy of a half-century stalled Bangladesh’s recovery. Fahima Khatun added a valuable 44* at the death, guiding the total to 178/9.
Pakistan’s bowlers were clinical throughout their matches in cricket stadiums. Sadia Iqbal starred with 3/28, while Fatima Sana and Diana Baig shared four wickets between them.
Chasing 179, Pakistan lost an early wicket, but Muneeba Ali and Sidra Amin’s 80-run stand set the tone. Muneeba scored a classy 69, and Alia Riaz wrapped up the win with an unbeaten 53, sealing Pakistan’s perfect run in the Women’s CWCQ 2025.
Bangladesh’s Nervous Wait
Despite their loss, Bangladesh’s hopes for Women’s CWCQ 2025 qualification weren’t dashed yet. Their fate depended on the result of the final match between West Indies and Thailand. A narrow escape was on the horizon.

Thailand Post a Modest Target
As winners of the coin toss, West Indies made the decision to commence batting first because victory was essential. The Thailand batting team began powerfully with 64/2 before falling apart thanks to Afy Fletcher and Aaliyah Alleyne’s partnership which ended at 85/6. The team advanced to 166 as Natthakan Chantham scored 66 runs off 98 delivered balls.
Qualification Equation: Almost Impossible
To qualify for the Women’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier 2025, West Indies needed to chase 167 in just 10.1 overs — a brutal task. A tie followed by a six could extend their chase into the 11th over.
They began with ferocious intent. Qiana Joseph smashed 26 quickly before being dismissed. Skipper Hayley Matthews exploded with 70 off 29 balls, pushing the Windies past 100 in just 6.5 overs. Chinelle Henry continued the assault with a rapid 48 off 17, but her dismissal in the 11th over left too much to do.
In a cruel twist, Stafanie Taylor hit a massive six, but with the previous delivery only going for a single, it wasn’t enough. West Indies won the game but missed qualification by the barest of margins. Bangladesh, despite their earlier loss, advanced to the Women’s CWCQ 2025.
