Pakistan will face Zimbabwe in a six-match women’s white-ball series, commencing from May 4 at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi.

The series comprises three ODIs, which are part of the ICC Women’s Championship 2025-29, followed by three T20Is, according to a PCB statement.

The ODIs will be staged on May 4, 6 and 9, with the first ball of all matches to be bowled at 3.30pm.

The T20Is will be played on May 12, 14 and 15, with matches scheduled to begin at 7.30pm.

Pakistan’s 15-member ODI squad will be led by Fatima Sana.

The squad features one uncapped player, Momina Riasat. The squad for the T20I series will be announced in due course.

Pakistan are currently placed fifth in the ICC Women’s Championship standings with two points after featuring in an away ODI series against South Africa earlier this year.

The forthcoming T20I series will provide the Pakistan women’s team an opportunity to fine-tune preparations ahead of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, scheduled to take place in England and Wales from June 12 to July 5.

Before the ICC event, Pakistan will participate in a T20I tri-nation tournament in Ireland, also featuring Ireland and the West Indies, from 28 May to 4 June.
