Muneeba Ali, the star batter of Pakistan, expressed confidence in her team's ability to outperform India in an upcoming match after securing a crucial victory against Thailand. Pakistan triumphed by 35 runs in their first Asia Cup 2026 encounter at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, with Muneeba's half-century and disciplined bowling playing pivotal roles.
Pakistan defended a modest total of 119/9, dismissing Thailand for 84/8 in their 20 overs. Despite an unconvincing performance against Thailand, Muneeba believes that addressing fielding lapses and shot selections can set the team up for a strong showing against India on September 5. The victory propelled Pakistan to second place in Group A, behind India on net run rate, while Thailand maintained third place with two points from three matches.
