Zimbabwe's women suffered a turnaround in fortune in the Women's World Cup Qualifiers this morning, as Pakistan overpowered them in a one-sided match in Stellenbosch. Batting first, Zimbabwe posted just 58 before being bowled out, with none of their players reaching double figures - Emily Jinjika's 9 was the best of a poor bunch, while Pakistan helped them along by adding 20 extras to the total. Sana Mir took 3/7 from 6 overs. In reply, Pakistan - who unlike Zimbabwe hold Test status in the women's game - rattled off the required runs in 13 overs, for the loss of just one wicket.

Scorecard below the cut. In today's other Pool B match, Ireland beat Scotland by 9 wickets, a result that leaves Pakistan top of the group, with Ireland ahead of Zimbabwe on Net Run Rate - making their meeting on Thursday a crunch game for both sides.
Zimbabwe 58 (35.3 overs; Jinjika 9, "Extras" 20, Sana Mir 3/7), Pakistan 59/1 (13 overs; Bismah Maroof 25*, Jinjika 1/15). Pakistan win by 9 wickets.
