Under-19 Women’s Tri Series 2024 Points Table: Updated standings after Pakistan vs Sri Lanka, Match 2
The second match of the Under-19 Tri-Nation T20 Series 2024 between Pakistan Women and Sri Lanka Women on Thursday (January 25) was abandoned due to a wet outfield. As a result, the two teams shared a point each.
Bangladesh continue to stay at the top of the table with one win in one match played so far. They have two points to their name and a positive net run rate of 0.439. After getting one point from the second game of the tournament, Pakistan now sit at the number two position on the table.
They have one point from one game but the fans would have wanted the game to happen and see their team win. Things aren’t going in Sri Lanka’s favor at the moment. After losing the first game, Sri Lanka didn’t get the chance to fight back on Thursday due to rain.
As it stands, the Lankans are third with one point in two matches. Their net run rate of -0.439 doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence, either.
