In the 6th match of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026, India Women (IND-W) are set to face Pakistan Women (PAK-W) on Sunday at Edgbaston, Birmingham. India entered the tournament after a 2-1 T20I series loss to England Women and will be keen to make a strong start to their World Cup campaign. Pakistan, meanwhile, have struggled recently, finishing at the bottom of the tri-series in Ireland after losing to both Ireland and the West Indies.

Experienced captain Harmanpreet Kaur will lead the Indian side. The batting unit includes Smriti Mandhana, Jemimah Rodrigues, and Richa Ghosh, while the bowling attack will be spearheaded by Deepti Sharma and pacer Renuka Singh Thakur.

On the other hand, Pakistan are led by young all-rounder Fatima Sana. She has been one of Pakistan’s standout performers in T20 cricket, scoring 298 runs in 2026 at an impressive strike rate of 186.25. Sana also holds the record for the fastest fifty in women’s T20Is, reaching the milestone in just 15 balls. However, the head-to-head record heavily favours India, who have won 13 of their 16 T20I encounters against Pakistan
