DUBAI (Kashmir English): Pakistan’s two spinners, Sadia Iqbal and Nashra Sandhu, have maintained their prominent positions in the latest International Cricket Council (ICC) Women’s T20 International Rankings, but national team captain Fatima Sana has dropped one place in the all-rounders’ list.
Left-arm spinner Sadia Iqbal is Pakistan’s best-ranked T20 bowler, ranked sixth with 710 rating points. Sadia Iqbal is behind England’s Lauren Bell and ahead of her compatriot Nashra Sandhu.
On the other hand, left-arm spinner Nashra is ranked ninth with 693 rating points, which has put the two Pakistani bowlers in the world’s top 10 T20 bowlers.
Both the spinners have played a significant role in strengthening Pakistan’s bowling line in recent times and have troubled the world’s best batters with their accurate line and length.
