DUBAI: Former Pakistan captain Sana Mir feels that the upcoming ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 Qualifier in Pakistan will benefit teams like Bangladesh, Ireland and West Indies and welcomes the approach taken by the ICC to grow the game.

The qualifier tournament set to take place in Pakistan from April 9, featuring six teams, will finalise the remaining teams for the eight-team tournament later this year in India.
Hosts Pakistan will be joined by ICC Full Members Bangladesh, Ireland and West Indies along with Associate Members Thailand and Scotland, for the Qualifier.
"One of the great things about the ICC Women's Championship, which I benefited from hugely in my career, is that it has been expanded to IO teams. I feel that plays a huge role, especially for countries like Bangladesh and Ireland now that they have been part of that," ICC quoted Sana as saying in a release.
