India Women are taking on Bangladesh Women in match number 28 of the ICC Women's World Cup at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai. This is the last match in the league stage of the tournament. The Women in Blue have already qualified for the semifinals of the Women's World Cup, while Bangladesh have been knocked out of the competition.
India Women sealed their berth in the top four with a much-needed clinical win over New Zealand in their previous match. Sent into bat, they posted 340-9 in 49 overs as Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal hit centuries, while Jemimah Rodrigues slammed an unbeaten 76 off 55 balls.
Set to chase a revised target of 325 in 44 overs, New Zealand were held to 271-8. Renuka Singh Thakur and Kranti Gaud claimed two wickets each, while four other bowlers chipped in with one scalp each. India Women would be keen to keep the momentum going ahead of the big semifinal against Australia.
