Pakistan skipper Bismah Maroof expressed disappointment after her side got thrashed by Bangladesh in the 12th match of the ongoing ICC Women's ODI World Cup, at Seddon Park, Hamilton on Monday. Pakistan batter Sidra Ameen's knock of 104 runs went in vain as Fahima Khatun scalped three wickets and provided her side a victory by 9 runs.

A spectacular late collapse left Pakistan's Women's Cricket World Cup campaign in tatters on Monday and handed Bangladesh their first victory ever at the one-day showcase. Pakistan appeared to be cruising to victory, powered by a maiden century for Sidra Ameen, but slumped to a nine-run defeat after losing six wickets for 26 runs. It was Pakistan's fourth straight loss at the tournament in New Zealand and gives them virtually no chance of making the playoffs.
Bangladesh has pulled off its first win at a Women's Cricket World Cup, with Pakistan falling nine runs short in a thrilling run chase in Hamilton, New Zealand.

Pakistan committed hara-kiri to hand debutants Bangladesh a nine-run win, their first-ever victory in the ICC Women's ODI World Cup here on Monday. Chasing 235 to win, Ameen gave Pakistan a flying start, forging a 91-run partnership with Nahida Khan (43) for the first wicket and then added another 64 runs with Bismah Maroof (31). With Ameen going strong, Pakistan were well on course for a successful chase, reaching 183 for two but Fahima Khatun (3/38) turned the match on its head with three quick wickets as Pakistan inexplicably lost five of their batters for just five runs to slip to 188 for seven and were eventually restricted to 225 for nine. Khatun picked up the wickets of Omaima Sohail (10), Aliya Riaz (0) and Fatima Sana (0), while Rumana Ahmed removed Nida Dar (0) before centurion Ameen fell for a run-out to end Pakistan's hope.
