Why did England & Pakistan observe silence before CWC 2025 game?
Before the ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 game between England and Pakistan in Colombo, both teams maintained a moment of silence. The gesture was to pay their respects to Pakistan batter Shawaal Zulfiqar's father, who died on Wednesday. The 20-year-old’s father passed away in Sialkot while she was serving her side in the WODI competition.
