The second match of the series will take place at the same venue on Thursday.

Bangladesh will go up against Hayley Matthews’ West Indies on 17th April next at the tournament.

The ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 Qualifier begins on April 9 in Pakistan.

Led by captain Nigar Sultana Joty, the 15-member squad are gearing up for a do-or-die battle against West Indies, Ireland, Thailand, Scotland, and hosts Pakistan.

On Thursday, skipper Nigar Sultana Joty talked to The Daily Star’s Samsul Arefin Khan regarding her team’s preparation, expectations and chances at the ICC Women’s World Cup Qualifiers

South Africa captain Laura Wolvaardt says Test cricket will always be the pinnacle of the sport and believes the women's game needs to be a showcase for more red-ball matches at the elite level.

Nigar Sultana Joty-led Sheltech Cricket Club secured the Women’s Dhaka Premier League (WDPL) title on Monday with a game in hand, having picked up seven straight wins.

It was learnt that Rupali Bank witnessed a management change in recent times, and the new board is unwilling to continue their team.

Nigar Sultana Joty became the country’s first women cricketer to hit a first-class century when she reached the three-figure mark for Central Zone on the final day of their three-day match against North Zone in the first round fixture of the Women’s Bangladesh Cricket League (BCL) at the Shaheed Kamaruzzaman Stadium in Rajshahi today.

Bangladesh will look to bounce back when they face Nepal tomorrow in their second and final Super 4 fixture at the same venue.

Last year, Bangladesh not only had a decent campaign in the inaugural U-19 Women’s T20 World Cup in South Africa, but they also produced players like Marufa Akter, Shorna Akter, Dilara Akter and Rabeya.

Although three and a half years have passed since then, the Tigresses are yet to feature in the game’s elite format.

While Ireland had recently beat England and Sri Lanka, the hosts are winless this year and last played a 50-over match in March.

For the first time, BCB has been able to secure a deal for title sponsorship and ground rights for a home women’s series.

The match once again delivered a similar old story -- evident in the preceding defeats against England, West Indies -- where Bangladesh batters showcased a below-par performance.

Thursday’s crunch game between West Indies and Bangladesh had a big impact on the qualification permutations at the Women’s T20 World Cup.

In a repeat of the 2023 semi-final, England got their revenge with an all-round team display to chase down 125 with four balls remaining.

The momentum for women's cricket in Bangladesh would have had a far bigger boost had they been staging the event as planned.

The 23-match event will feature the top 10 teams, split into two groups of five, competing across two venues: the Dubai International Stadium and the iconic Sharjah Cricket Stadium.
