The Maroon Warriors, after the conclusion of the ODI series, will face Pakistan in a five-match t20 international series which runs from April 26 to May 3.

The T20I series will give both teams the chance to fine-tune their skills and strategies ahead of the upcoming ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, which is due to take place after the Women’s CPL in Bangladesh in September.
