Bangladesh Women vs India Women Pitch Report
The pitch at Sher-e-Bangla stadium has been on the slower side for the most part. The surface is soft and dry and begins to crack up as the game progresses. It is known to aid the spinners and slower bowlers even in the earlier part of the innings. Run scoring can be very tricky as batters will need to work tremendously hard for their runs.
With an average first innings score of 105, we may be in for a low-scoring thriller which may progress all the way down to the wire.

Bangladesh Women vs India Women Prediction
India has a dominant T20 record against Bangladesh Women. The two sides have clashed on 13 occasions, with India winning 11 times and Bangladesh claiming two wins. Besides, India’s track record in the last five games have been impressive, winning three fixtures. Whereas, Bangladesh Women have only managed to secure one win in their last five T20I matches.
The winning momentum is certainly behind India Women at this point.
Prediction: India Women to win the match.
