Abtaha Maqsood, a legspinner for Scotland, has been ruled out of the Women's T20 World Cup due to a fractured hand. The injury occurred on Tuesday during Scotland's final warm-up match against Pakistan. Maqsood will be replaced by medium-pacer Hannah Rainey, who is currently representing Yorkshire in the Vitality Blast. Before Saturday's first match between Scotland and Ireland, Rainey will join her teammates. Maqsood's departure is significant for Scotland because she has taken their most wickets in Women's T20Is, with 73 at an economy rate of 5.63 and an average of 17.72. Scotland head coach Craig Wallace stated, "The whole playing squad and coaching staff are absolutely devastated for Abtaha." She is a crucial member of our team and will be greatly missed during this tournament, both on and off the field. We hope to see her soon back on the field and wish her the best as she recovers. According to Wallace, "Hannah now comes into the squad, and we are delighted to welcome her into the group." "She obviously has a lot of experience, and this is a great opportunity for her as we get ready for some exciting weeks." In 2025, Rainey completed her 41 T20I appearances. She has an economy rate of 5.39 with 25 wickets. Regarding Maqsood's injury, Scotland seamer Chloe Abel said, "Pretty shocking news for the whole team to take." "Not only from a performance standpoint but also from a values standpoint, Abutaha is a significant component of our team. It's hard on her, so we hope she can stay and watch some cricket.
