Bangladeshi women's cricket face a huge setback from India
Bangladesh women's cricket team also saw the other side of the coin after losing big to India
The Bangladesh U-19 women's cricket team also saw the other side of the coin. In the previous match, the Bangladesh women's cricket team won by 120 runs by bowling out Malaysia for 29 runs. Today, that team started the Super Four with a big loss.
Bangladesh could score 80 runs for 8 wickets in 20 overs against India at the Beaumes Oval in Kuala Lumpur. The Indians crossed the target in 12.1 overs with 8 wickets in hand.
The Bangladesh U-19 team did not have a bad start. Fahmida Choya and Eva scored 27 runs in 5.2 overs in the opening partnership. The rhythm fell in the sixth over. Indian left-arm spinner Ayushi Shukla returned Eva (14 off 19 balls) and Fahmida (10 off 14 balls) in four balls.
Bangladesh, who lost their first wicket for 27 runs, lost the seventh wicket for 46 runs in the 14th over. There, Farzana Yasmin (8 off 21 balls) and Nishita Akhtar (10 off 17 balls) took the team's run to 62 runs. After Nishita's dismissal on the first ball of the last over, Bangladesh scored 18 runs in the last 5 balls. No. 10 batsman Habiba Islam scored 11 runs in 4 balls, including 1 four and 1 six. The remaining 5 runs came from wides.
Then, in 22 runs, Bangladesh leg-spinner Anisa Akhtar gave India a little hope by taking the first 2 wickets of the team. From there, opener Gongadi Trisha (58 off 45 balls) and captain Nikki Prasad (22 off 15 balls) put on a 64-run partnership to help India win.
Despite starting the Super Four with a loss, Bangladesh still has 2 points from beating Sri Lanka in the first round. If they beat Nepal in their last match of the Super Four tomorrow, the Bangladesh girls will advance to the final.
Bangladesh U-19 Women's Team: 80/8 in 20 overs (Eva 14, Habiba 11*, Fahmida 10, Nishita 10; Ayushi 3/9, Sonam 2/6, Shabnam 1/13, Mithila 1/28).
India U-19 Women's Team: 86/2 in 12.1 overs (Trisha 58*, Nikki 22*; Anisa 2/19).
Result: India U-19 Women's Team won by 8 wickets.
