India will take on Pakistan at Edgbaston, Birmingham, in their first game of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026. Although this is one of the most sought-after fixtures in world cricket, the rivalry, especially in the women’s game, is far from close and makes this a David-versus-Goliath contest. The two teams have played 16 T20Is in total, with India winning 13 and Pakistan just three.
Although India have never won this tournament, they arrive in fine form, having lifted the Women’s 50-over World Cup at home last year. They also recorded a comfortable victory over West Indies in their pre-tournament warm-up. However, they have found it difficult to get past England, who not only beat them in a recent T20I series 2-1 but also defeated them in the warm-up.
As for Pakistan, they have never made it out of the group stage of this tournament, and their recent warm-up form offers little encouragement. They first lost to Sri Lanka and then to a lower-ranked Scotland. Can they produce an unlikely upset and rock India’s already difficult path in a group that also features Australia and South Africa?
