After losing their tournament opener against South Africa, England Women thrashed Thailand in their second fixture of the Women's T20 World Cup. They will now go head-to-head with Pakistan, who are coming off a magnificent victory over West Indies.

The English side brought their 'A' game to the table as Heather Knight and Natalie Sciver sank Thailand despite the fact that the team lost its top two batswomen for ducks.

Anya Shrubsole starred with the ball later in the match to guide England to a 98-run victory.

As for Pakistan's first match, Diana Baig and Anam Amin's disciplined bowling efforts ensured that the Women in Green restricted their opponents to 124/7 in 20 overs. The duo of Javeria Khan and Bismah Maroof then batted patiently in the second innings to drive their team home comfortably.

Pakistan will look to replicate a similar kind of performance when they meet England. While the English team has a lot of experience on its side, the Pakistani team can beat them riding on their current form.
