Pakistan is set to host another major international cricket event in 2025, with the country confirmed as the venue for the ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifiers. This comes in addition to hosting the ICC Champions Trophy the same year.
According to reports, the Women’s World Cup qualifying matches will be played in multiple cities across Pakistan in April, ahead of the main tournament in India later that year. The competition will feature six teams—Pakistan, Bangladesh, Ireland, Scotland, Thailand and the West Indies—battling for a place in the ICC Women’s World Cup 2026. The top two teams will secure their spots in the tournament, joining the top six sides from the ICC Women’s Championship 2022-2025.

Pakistan, which has not yet qualified for the World Cup, will also compete in the qualifiers, aiming to earn its place in the prestigious event. To prepare for the challenge, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has set up a 27-day training camp for the national women’s team at the High-Performance Academy in Faisalabad. Running from 2 to 28 February, the camp includes 50-over practice matches and intensive training sessions focused on improving skills and fitness.
As part of an agreement following India’s decision not to travel to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy, the ICC has also awarded Pakistan the hosting rights for the 2028 Women’s T20 World Cup.
