The ninth match of the ICC Women’s ODI World Cup 2025 will be a spectacular encounter on October 8th when Australia Women face Pakistan at the R Premadasa Stadium, Colombo. The match begins at 3:00 PM IST, thereby laying the perfect platform for one of the much-awaited group stage encounters.
Australia have continued with their dominant start in this World Cup. In their first game against New Zealand, Ashleigh Gardner slammed a painful 115 off 83 deliveries to take them from a precarious 128/5 to a very competitive 327 battingside total. The bowlers backed that effort up with an 89-run convincing victory. But the second contest against Sri Lanka saw wash away with both teams sharing a point apiece.

Conversely, Pakistan have begun poorly. Their batters went for a sorry collapse against Bangladesh, managing just 129 as the opposition chased it down with seven wickets in hand. Against India in their second game, the bowlers came to close and restricted the target to 247, but the batting delayed the Pakistanis’ struggles for another 88-run shellacking, being bowled out in 159.
