Pakistan did not have to bowl a single ball or hit one shot as their match against Indonesia at the Zhejiang University of Technology Cricket Field was called off due to wet weather.

The win was instead given to Pakistan based on the country's seeding in the tournament to the frustration of Indonesia.

"It would have been tough, it's the Pakistan team but we'd still have been trying to beat them and hopefully giving them a good game," said Indonesia coach Gihan Rajith.

"It depends on the kind of day they're having.

"When they're playing well and making the minimum of mistakes, they'll beat any strong team."

India made the most of being ranked the number one Asian women's cricket team after their last-eight clash against Malaysia was called off.

A score of 173 for 2 thanks to Shafali Verma’s 67 runs off 39 balls was enough for India as the heaven’s opened, dashing Malaysia’s hopes of batting against the Indian bowlers.

"We are very disappointed because we wanted to play and give our best in this tournament," said Malaysia's Jemimah Jessica Rodrigues in a report by Dawn.

"We are here to learn a lot of things from this kind of team (but) we can’t do anything because of the rain.

"It was out of our control."
