Women’s Asia Cup: Bangladesh Win Toss, Opt To Bat First Against India In First Semi-final
India have a 19-3 lead over Bangladesh in women’s T20I meetings. In May this year, India had won 5-0 over Bangladesh in a bilateral series at Sylhet. After winning the toss, Bangladesh captain Nigar Sultana said Marufa Akter comes in for Sabikun Jesmin.
“The wicket looks good. The ball was coming onto the bat nicely. They have been playing well. 2018 was a long time back. They (India) have been playing well. If we perform collectively, we'll put up a good show. We need to work on our batting and building partnerships,” said Nigar.
India captain Harmanpreet Kaur said, “We have played good cricket so far. Today also we want to back ourselves. They are a good side. For us, we need to focus on what we've been doing.” India have got in Uma Chetry at number three in place of Dayalan Hemalatha, while Harmanpreet and Pooja Vastrakar come back after resting in previous game against Nepal.
