世界気象機関(WMO)は15日、主な温室効果ガスである二酸化炭素(CO2)、メタン、一酸化二窒素の大気中の濃度が2024年に最高記録を更新したと発表しました。

この濃度上昇には、化石燃料の消費に加え、北半球・南半球で発生した大規模な山火事も大きく影響しているとされています。

WMOの発表は、地球温暖化問題の深刻さを改めて示すものであり、温室効果ガスの削減に向けた国際的な取り組みの強化が求められています。

ICC Women’s World Cup: Rain denies Pakistan victory over England

**ICC Women’s World Cup: Rain Denies Pakistan Victory Over England**

*By Rajdeep Saha | Oct 15, 2025 | 10:23 pm*

Rain played the ultimate spoilsport in Match 16 of the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 held at R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Wednesday. Pakistan showcased a dominant performance against England and appeared well poised for a memorable win. However, the weather had the final say, denying Pakistan a much-needed victory.

England posted a total of 133/9 in their 31 overs. In reply, Pakistan began strongly, reaching 34/0 with a revised target of 113 runs. Unfortunately, rain interrupted play once again and the match was ultimately declared a no result.

**Match Summary**

The match saw England struggling early, falling to 79/7 after 25 overs before rain forced a suspension of play. When play resumed, the innings was reduced to 31 overs per side. England battled back to finish with 133/9, recovering from 75/5 in the final six overs.

Pakistan’s openers got off to a promising start, scoring 34 runs in 6.4 overs. But just as they were building momentum, rain returned and the match was called off, leaving both teams sharing the points.

**Highlights**

England’s batting effort was marked by wickets falling at regular intervals, preventing them from posting a challenging total. The standout performer with the bat was Charlie Dean, who top-scored for England with 33 runs.

For Pakistan, skipper Fatima Sana was exceptional with the ball, claiming four wickets for 27 runs in 6 overs. Sadia Iqbal also impressed, taking 2/16 in her 6 overs, including 2 maidens. Pakistan’s bowling kept England in check before rain intervened.

**Points Table Update**

Following this match, England continue to lead the standings. They have remained unbeaten after four matches, accumulating 7 points with a superior net run rate (NRR) of +1.864, edging out Australia in second place.

On the other hand, Pakistan remain at the bottom of the table with just one point from three games (one no result and three losses). Their campaign will need a strong turnaround in the upcoming fixtures if they hope to climb the rankings.

Stay tuned for more updates from the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025.

Afghanistan beat Bangladesh in 3rd ODI, complete clean sweep: Stats

**Afghanistan Complete Clean Sweep Against Bangladesh in 3rd ODI with 200-Run Victory**

*By Rajdeep Saha | October 15, 2025, 12:39 AM*

Afghanistan have sealed a comprehensive clean sweep in the three-match ODI series against Bangladesh, dominating the final game by a massive margin of 200 runs. The match, held in Abu Dhabi, saw Afghanistan post a formidable total of 293 for nine before bowling out Bangladesh for a mere 93 runs.

This series win mirrors Bangladesh’s recent success over Afghanistan in the T20I format by the same 3-0 margin earlier this month, highlighting the competitive nature between the two sides across formats.

### Afghanistan’s Batting Struggles and Recovery

Afghanistan’s innings began positively with an excellent opening partnership. Ibrahim Zadran and Rahmanullah Gurbaz added 99 runs for the first wicket, setting the foundation for a strong total. However, after Gurbaz’s dismissal, Afghanistan endured a mini-collapse, losing four wickets for just 15 runs within 25 balls.

Despite this setback, Mohammad Nabi’s explosive finishing ensured Afghanistan reached a challenging target. Nabi impressed with his powerful hitting, smashing three sixes in four balls off Mehidy Hasan Miraz, followed by another six and three fours off Hasan Mahmud during the final overs.

### Key Performers: Zadran and Nabi Shine

Ibrahim Zadran was Afghanistan’s top scorer, crafting a patient 95 runs that anchored the innings. Mohammad Nabi provided the much-needed acceleration with an aggressive 62 runs off 37 balls, proving to be the chief architect behind Afghanistan’s strong finishing.

Nabi’s late blitz helped Afghanistan surpass the 290-run mark, as the team was initially projected to end around 250-260 before his onslaught in the closing overs.

### Afghanistan’s Bowling Dominance

Afghanistan’s bowlers then ran through Bangladesh’s batting line-up. Rashid Khan set the tone early, taking three wickets in his first three overs, including the prized wicket of Towhid Hridoy on his very first delivery. This early breakthrough put Bangladesh under immense pressure.

Following Rashid’s impactful spell, Bilal Sami took charge with an outstanding bowling performance, claiming five wickets in total. His efforts helped bowl Bangladesh out for only 93 runs, sealing a commanding victory and completing Afghanistan’s series clean sweep.

**Summary:**
Afghanistan’s comprehensive 200-run victory over Bangladesh in the third ODI capped off a dominant 3-0 series victory. Key contributions from Ibrahim Zadran, Mohammad Nabi, and the lethal bowling spells from Rashid Khan and Bilal Sami proved decisive in the Abu Dhabi encounter.
