India vs Pakistan Head-to-Head in Women’s T20 World Cups
Since the inaugural Women’s T20 World Cup in 2009, India and Pakistan have met eight times in the tournament. India holds a clear advantage, having won six of those encounters, while Pakistan has registered two victories. In their most recent World Cup meeting in 2024, India secured a comfortable six-wicket win.
The overall T20I record between the two teams also heavily favors India. Across 16 matches, the Indian women’s team has emerged victorious 13 times, with Pakistan managing just three wins.
India squad for women’s T20 World Cup 2026: Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Smriti Mandhana, Shafali Verma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Bharti Fulmali, Deepti Sharma, Richa Ghosh, Shree Charani, Yastika Bhatia, Nandani Sharma, Arundhati Reddy, Renuka Singh, Kranti Gaud, Shreyanka Patil, Radha Yadav.
India find themselves in a challenging Group A alongside six-time champions Australia, South Africa, Bangladesh, Netherlands and Pakistan.
Over the years, India’s women’s team has produced several impressive World Cup performances, but the ultimate prize has remained out of reach. They finished runners-up in the 2020 T20 World Cup and reached the semi-finals in 2022, yet a maiden global title has continued to elude them.
