Bangladesh Women vs England Women Highlights: England's four-pronged spin attack on Saturday delivered a hard-fought 21-run victory over Bangladesh in their low-scoring group league opener in the Women's T20 World Cup in Sharjah.
On a slow track, England emerged victorious riding on a crucial 48-run opening stand between Maia Bouchier (23 off 18 balls) and seasoned Danni Wyatt-Hodge (41 off 40 balls) since run-making became increasingly difficult as the game progressed.
In reply, Bangladesh were guilty of not putting in partnerships after spilling a few catches in the first half. They were eventually restricted to 97 for seven in their allotted 20 overs. (Scorecard) Right then, we have already had six games fly by in the 2024 Women's T20 World Cup and we will have a couple of more to end the first weekend of the tournament in style.
First up on Sunday, 6th October, it will be clash of the rivals as India Women take on Pakistan Women at 10 am GMT. This will be followed by a clash between West Indies Women and Scotland Women at 2 pm GMT.
