Harmanpreet Kaur-led Team India approaches their crucial Women's T20 World Cup 2024 game against Pakistan with the knowledge that a defeat would likely spell the end of their tournament hopes.
After their opening loss to New Zealand, the side finds itself at the bottom of Group A, where only the top two teams will advance to the semi-finals. Currently, New Zealand and Australia occupy the top two spots, while Pakistan and Australia have each secured one victory. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, has lost both of its matches.
