Failed partnerships vs United team

Pakistan's bowling lineup was led by Nashra Sandhu, who took 3-54. Fatima Sana also took 2 wickets and offered some relief to the team.

In retaliation, Pakistan was bowled out for 190 runs in 47.5 overs, the main reason was that they lacked meaningful partnerships despite having several double-digit scores. With 38 runs, Muneeba Ali was the highest individual scorer for his team, followed by Aliya Riaz with 36. Despite their combined 23-run contribution, Tuba Hasan and Fatima Sana were unable to match the visitors' run rate.

With two wickets each, Matthews, Aliyah Alleyne, and Taylor topped the West Indian bowling attack.

With 325 runs and six wickets, Matthews was declared Player of the Series.
