BAN-W vs PAK-W 3rd ODI prediction 2025: Bangladesh Women (BAN W) vs Pakistan Women (PAK W) 3rd ODI of the tournament will be played on Thursday, October 2, 2025 03:00 PM (IST) at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, Sri Lanka.

BAN-W vs PAK-W Match Previews

Bangladesh had a poor last World Cup, finishing second in their campaign. But this time, Bangladeshi fans will be hoping for a strong performance from the team captained by Nigar Sultana.

The last World Cup was also a disappointing one for Pakistan. They won only one out of seven matches and finished at the bottom of the table in the last Women's ODI World Cup. This time, under the captaincy of Fatima Sana, their team could perform well. Both teams will be looking to start their ICC Women's World Cup 2025 campaign with a win.

BAN-W vs PAK-W Match Pitch Report

The pitch at the R. Premadasa Stadium is a balanced surface, known for low to medium scoring and favoring both batsmen and bowlers depending on the stage of the match. Fast bowlers receive some swing and bounce in the early overs, especially with the new ball, making it difficult for batsmen to get off to a good start.

As the match progresses, the pitch slows down and spinners begin to gain more grip and control in the middle overs, making it difficult for batsmen to score runs. Batting on this pitch requires patience, as teams with strong spin attacks have the advantage of controlling the scoring rate in the middle overs.

The average first innings score in ODIs at this ground is around 220-230 runs, making any score above this mark quite competitive. The effect of dew in night matches can be helpful for teams chasing the target, so batting later in evening matches may be beneficial.

Who will win today's 3rd ODI match between BAN-W vs PAK-W?

Aaj ka PAK-W vs BAN-W match kon jeetega: Based on recent form and the performances of key players, the Pakistan women's team is a strong contender to win today's match by 50-70 runs. Pakistan's strong bowling attack, especially with bowlers like Nashra Sandhu and Fatima Sana, is expected to play a decisive role on the spin-friendly pitch at Colombo's R. Premadasa Stadium.

Bangladesh women's batting, led by Nigar Sultana and Fargana Hoque, has a competitive batting line-up, but facing Pakistan's spin and all-round abilities could be challenging. The two teams have historically been close contenders, but Pakistan's recent improved performance in the qualifiers and their team form give them the edge.
