In the end, Bangladesh Women outclassed Pakistan Women in all aspects of the game. The win not only restores Bangladesh's confidence but also sends a strong message as they look determined for the main tournament.
Bangladesh batted first and set a competitive target of 140 runs. They started well but stumbled after the loss of opener Shathi Rani, leading to a slowdown in scoring. However, a late flourish by Shorna Akter, who smashed a quickfire 28, helped Bangladesh post a solid total. Pakistan's bowlers made a concerted effort, utilizing eight different bowlers to keep the pressure on Bangladesh. Sadia Iqbal took two crucial wickets, while Omaima Sohail, Tuba Hassan, Diana Baig, and Nida Dar all chipped in with key contributions to restrict the Bangladeshi batting lineup. Chasing 140, Pakistan Women struggled to build partnerships, losing wickets at regular intervals and never managing to gain control of the game. Bangladesh’s disciplined bowling attack consistently put pressure on the Pakistan batters, who couldn't recover from the early blows. The Bangladesh bowlers outplayed their opponents, showcasing a well-rounded performance in both pace and spin.
Bangladesh Women have secured a convincing 24-run victory over Pakistan Women, bowling them out for just 117 runs in 18.4 overs. This win is a much-needed confidence booster for Bangladesh after their previous loss to Sri Lanka Women. Despite Pakistan’s promising start with the ball, they faltered in the latter stages of the game.
