330. Pakistan’s Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 Squad Deep Dive

Hi there! Welcome to Episode 330 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. Pakistan have named a youthful yet ambitious squad for the Women’s World Cup 2025, with Fatima Sana leading the side for the first time in the tournament. Uncapped batter Eyman Fatima headlines the selections, while experienced names like Sidra Amin, Aliya Riaz, and Diana Baig strengthen the core. In this episode, Janani of Sportsy Mathsy Tales joins us as we break down the squad player by player—examining Pakistan’s batting depth, bowling strengths, wicketkeeping options, and the X-factors who could shape their campaign. From the return of Sadaf Shamas to the spin resources of Nashra Sandhu and Syeda Aroob Shah, we ask: does this squad have what it takes to push Pakistan into the knockout stages?Thank you so much for tuning in to today’s episode and for your incredible support.
