Ireland were well beaten by Pakistan in the first of their two official warm-up matches ahead of the Under 19 World Cup which starts in earnest this weekend.
The Irish innings got off to the worst possible start with Siuin Woods run out first ball, and with Jane Loughran (4) having the same fate, and skipper Amy Hunter (13) going relatively cheaply, the Irish were in trouble at 19 for 3 in the 6th over.
Annabel Squires top-scored with 35, as she and Georgina Dempsey (24) added 56 in just over ten overs, as they rallied to 89 for 6 against a disciplined Pakistan attack.
Wickets for Niamh MacNulty (1-13), Kia McCartney and Zara Craig (both 1-14) gave Ireland early hope, before a boundary blitz from Eyman Fatima.
The Pakistan opener hit 9 fours and 2 sixes in her unbeaten 58 to guide the team to a seven wickets win in the 16th over.
Ireland play their second and final official warm-up match on Wednesday against Rwanda, before meeting the West Indies on Sunday.
