Asian Games 2023 Women’s Cricket, India vs Bangladesh: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, and Live Streaming Details
India and Bangladesh are all set to lock horns in the 1st semi-final of the Asian Games 2023 Women’s Cricket. The Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field in Hangzhou will be hosting this clash on Sunday, September 24.
India, led by Smriti Mandhana, have a great chance of securing themselves a medal in the ongoing tournament. There is also a chance of them facing Pakistan in the gold medal match on Monday.
India’s quarterfinal against Malaysia had to be called off due to rain. Shafali Verma had a decent outing after he scored a half-century and also became the youngest to reach 50 sixes in T20Is.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, made their way through to the semis after their quarterfinal against Hong Kong had to be abandoned without toss. They have a strong squad at their disposal.
Nigar Sultana Joty is their top batter along with the likes of Fargana Hoque Pinky and others. Marufa Akter is known for her raw pace and the focus will be on her as well.
