PAK-W vs IRE-W weather update: Newlands, Cape Town weather report for Women's T20 World Cup Match 10

An uninterrupted game awaits fans in Cape Town as the weather forecast for the 10th ICC Women's T20 World Cup match between Pakistan (PAK-W) and Ireland Women (IRE-W) has no chance of rain playing spoilsport. The Group B fixture is scheduled to be played at Newlands on Wednesday, February 15.

Both teams lost their first matches of the tournament and will be desperate to put their campaign back on track later tonight.

Pakistan suffered a thumping defeat against India by seven wickets in their tournament opener. While the batters did a fantastic job of putting 149 runs on the board, with skipper Bismah Maroof leading from the front with an unbeaten half-century, the bowlers failed to back it up. India rode on two match-winning knocks from Jemimah Rodrigues and Richa Ghosh to chase down the target with one over to spare.

Despite losing the match, they will draw confidence from how they played against Harmanpreet Kaur and Co. Pakistan will hope to come up with a better performance with the ball as they aim for their maiden victory in the T20 World Cup.

Ireland, on the other hand, head into the tournament with a win over world-beaters Australia in a warm-up game. However, they were humbled by England, losing the match by four wickets. The Irish side will have to come up with an all-round performance to trump Pakistan and keep themselves afloat for a knockout berth.
