Bangladesh women defeated the Zimbabwe women by 7 wickets to claim their third win in a row. Zimbabwe reeled under pressure once again and got decimated for 72 runs and Bangladesh reached the target with more than 30 overs to spare.
Zimbabwe has no answers for Bangladesh’s bowling
Except for Sharne Mayers who made 39 runs, the rest of the batters didn’t even reach the double-figures in another shoddy batting display by the hosts. Nahida Akhter wreaked havoc with 5 wickets, meanwhile, Fariha Trisna and Rumana Ahmed took two wickets each. In three games, Zimbabwe made 48,121, and 72 in three games which must ring alarm ballers with World Cup Qualifiers a mere 6 days away.
Bangladesh again reaches the total comfortably
Murshida Khatun’s 39 runs in 48 balls ensured that the team reaches the target with plenty of wickets and overs to spare. Nigar Sultana made 12 while Nuzhat Trisna made 10 runs to seal the deal off. Nomvelo Sibanda, Esther Mbofana, and Loryn Phiri had a wicket each for Zimbabwe. Bangladesh has now become acquainted with conditions in Zimbabwe and these wins will surely bolster the confidence but the road will be tougher against teams like Sri Lanka and Pakistan.
