The semi-final 2 clash of the women’s cricket competition in the Asian Games 2023 will see Pakistan Women take on Sri Lanka Women at the Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field in Hangzhou on Sunday (September 23). Nida Dar will lead Pakistan, while swashbuckling all-rounder Chamari Athapaththu will captain the Sri Lankan side.
Pakistan’s last match in the event was called off due to rain, and they will enter the semi-final 2 of the Asian Games with not much experience of the conditions. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka won their previous game by eight wickets in a rain-reduced 15-over encounter. Inoshi Priyadharshani contributed with a brilliant four-fer in the Islander’s victory.
Both Pakistan and Sri Lanka would look to give their best and book a place in the final of the 19th Asian Games.

Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field Pitch Report
The Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field’s pitch appears to strike a fair balance between favouring both fast and spin bowling. The batters might tend to struggle a bit at this venue, but they can score substantial runs by spending some time in the middle. The team winning the toss will likely bat first in the high-pressure game.
