India women were on a tour of Bangladesh for a five-match T20I series. The five T20I were played at the same venue Sylhet International Cricket Stadium. India Women clean-swept Bangladesh Women in the series and made big gains in the T20I rating points.
Under the leadership of Harmanpreet Kaur, India came up with big wins in all five matches. They won the first by a big margin of 44 runs after restricting the home team to 101 runs in 20 overs. The second match was interrupted by rain where they were judged 19 runs ahead of the DLS score.
India Women bowled out Bangladesh Women under 117 in the 3rd T20I and chased it down with 9 balls remaining. India were already in the driving seat with the series in their pocket. Still, they didn’t leave any room for Bangladesh Women in the fourth game of the series where they hit 122 runs in just 14 overs. They were set for a big total but rain interrupted and Bangladesh were asked to score 125 runs in those 14 overs.
125 in 15 overs against the Indian bowling lineup under overcast conditions, it wasn’t that easy and Bangladesh lost the match by 56 runs. They last T20I, Indian Women batted first and we saw a good team effort to post 156 runs on the board on a slow pitch. In response, Bangladesh kneel against Indian bowling.
