ICC Women's T20 World Cup: Bowlers put up a strong show to help Bangladesh snap their decade-long losing streak in Women’s T20 World Cups with a 16-run win over debutants Scotland in the tournament opener at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Thursday.

In their first-ever T20 World Cup game, despite a tidy show by their bowlers, Scotland dropped three matches as Bangladesh made 119/7, with Sobhana Mostary top-scoring via 36. In reply, vice-captain Sarah Bryce kept her team in the hunt with 49 not out but didn’t get any support as Scotland were kept on a tight leash by Bangladesh bowlers and ended up at 103/7.
