PCB Strikers

PCB Strikers are a Pakistani women's cricket team that compete in the Pakistan Women's One Day Cup. The team has no geographical base, instead being made up of some of the best players from across Pakistan. They are captained by Kainat Imtiaz and coached by Arshad Khan.[1] The side was formed ahead of the 2021–22 Pakistan Women's One Day Cup, adding to the previously three-team competition as a reflection of the growing number of female cricketers in Pakistan.[2][3]
