India Women will be looking to iron out their batting flaws in the fourth T20I against Bangladesh Women today. Despite holding a 3-0 lead in the series, India’s batting unit has shown some rust, with only one fifty scored across the three matches.
Shafali Verma has been the standout performer for India with 82 runs in the series so far. However, the likes of Smriti Mandhana and captain Harmanpreet Kaur will be eager to make significant contributions in the upcoming game.
With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held in Bangladesh later this year, India will be keen to gather as many lessons as possible from this tour regarding the conditions and pitches.
On the bowling front, India’s bowlers have adapted well to the slow pitches, with left-arm spinner Radha Yadav leading the chart with six wickets. She has been well supported by off-spinner Shreyanka Patil, pacers Renuka Singh, and Pooja Vastrakar, who have all taken four wickets each.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, will be relying on Nigar Sultana, the leading run-scorer in the series with 85 runs, to counter the strong Indian attack. The hosts will be looking to replicate their last T20I win over India, which came in 2023.
The fourth T20I between Bangladesh Women and India Women will be streamed live on the FanCode app and website. Both teams have announced their squads for the game, with Nigar Sultana leading Bangladesh and Harmanpreet Kaur leading India.
