‘It hasn’t fazed us’ - Ireland lose to Pakistan as match goes ahead despite Imran Khan shooting

In reply, Ireland struggled to put together enough partnerships of note, captain Laura Delany top-scoring with 69 as the side was bowled out for 207 in the 50th over.

A breakthrough finally came when off-spinner Eimear Richardson had Ali caught by Arlene Kelly for 107, her knock containing 10 boundaries and two maximums. Kelly herself continued to excel in her death bowling role, one of few positives for Ireland, her two wickets coming at the back end as Aliya Raz and Sadaf Shamas were dismissed. Ameen ended unbeaten in a stellar innings of 176.

In response, scoreboard pressure told throughout the Irish chase, Gaby Lewis departing after scoring two boundaries while Leah Paul was bowled by a hooping in-swinger from Fatima Sana. Orla Prendergast was caught in the leg side trying to heave spinner Nida Dar to the fence.
