Wahab Riaz, the mentor of the national women’s cricket team, wants the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) to launch an international T20 women’s league in the country, on the lines of the Pakistan Super League (PSL).
“The PSL has been a big success for us, and while our girls are not short on talent, they lack the experience and exposure of playing against stronger teams and players,” Wahab told reporters in Karachi.
He suggested that the PCB should explore this possibility because when Pakistani players share the dressing room with international players and play with them and against them, it will help them grow.
He also felt the Board should help in getting the members of the national women’s team opportunities to play in foreign T20 leagues.
Wahab, who is also a national selector, is supervising the team’s training in Karachi ahead of a bilateral series against Zimbabwe.
It is the first time a women’s team from Zimbabwe is visiting Pakistan for a white-ball tour. The teams will compete in three T20 matches and as many ODIs, starting April 29.
Wahab said the series will help in the preparations for this year’s T20 World Cup.
