Pakistan was given the opportunity to bat and was propelled to a total of 165 for five by the bespectacled left-handed opening hitter.
Although she had struck a one-day international hundred against the same opponents in Lahore last November, the little built Muneeba had not before achieved a half-century in 44 T20 internationals.
A third-wicket partnership of 101 was shared by Muneeba and seasoned player Nida Dar (33).[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
