Nida’s international cricket career began in ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2010 with a T20I against Sri Lanka Women. It was a close contest which the opposition won by just one run, but Nida showed glimpses of her potential with the figures of two for 10 from two overs, which included the wicket of Inoka Galagedara, Sri Lanka’s top-scorer in the innings. Nida has since played 105 T20Is.
Over the years, Nida, who with 1,152 runs has the third most runs for a Pakistan woman cricketer in T20Is, has developed into a vital cog in the national side, and Javeria Khan will be banking on her experience in the three T20Is and the five ODIs that follow them. How much Nida’s contributions are crucial is underscored by her figures in the matches that Pakistan has won. Out of the 105 matches she has played, Pakistan has won 43 in which she has taken 52 wickets at 11.59 – almost seven runs less than her overall average – and has a strike rate of 15.90. She is eager to implement her vast experience in the upcoming matches against West Indies. “As an all-rounder and a senior player in the team, I am looking forward to execute my responsibility of winning the matches for my side. West Indies might be ranked sixth and we seventh, but the rankings do not really matter to me because the results are defined by how a team performs at the day. “This series is a good opportunity for us to win here and it will certainly help us in our preparations for the three major events – World Cup qualifiers, Women’s World Cup and Commonwealth Games.”
