BAN-W Team News
Once again, Nigar Sultana will lead Bangladesh Women in this series with Nahida Akter taking on the vice-captaincy role. Sumaiya Akter was part of the squad for Bangladesh Women’s last WT20I series but is only on the stand-by list for this game.
BAN-W Team Batting
Bangladesh Women were dismissed for 78 in their last WT20I, and their first target will be to get to 100 in this opening match of the series. Captain Nigar Sultana top scored in that game and she may consider batting in the top four during this series.
BAN-W Team Bowling
Although they lost the series 3-0, Bangladesh Women did produce some impressive showings with the ball against Australia Women earlier this month. Vice-captain Nahida Akter comes into this game after taking five wickets from her last two matches.

IND-W Team News
This will be India Women’s first WT20I action since losing 2-1 against Australia Women in early January but they will fancy their chances of going 1-0 up in this match. Jemimah Rodrigues will miss this game and the rest of the series with a back complaint.
IND-W Team Batting
There are plenty of very talented batters in the top order for India Women with skipper Harmanpreet Kaur likely to come in at number four. The opening pair of Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana are both strong players with 31 WT20I half-centuries between them.
IND-W Team Bowling
We can expect Pooja Vastrakar and Deepti Sharma to both be dangerous on this pitch in Sylhet but the entire bowling group for India Women should cause problems for Bangladesh Women’s batting line-up. Renunka Singh and Titas Sadhu will look to swing the new ball.
IND-W Team Form
India Women have a strong WT20I side but lost their last two games in this format.
IND Women Predicted Playing 11
Shafali Verma, Smriti Mandhana, Dayalan Hemalatha, Harmanpreet Kaur (c), Richa Ghosh (wk), Deepti Sharma, Amanjot Kaur, Pooja Vastrakar, Shreyanka Patil, Renuka Singh, Titas Sadhu
🏆 BAN Women vs IND Women Prediction
With both sides playing against the world’s best in Australia Women in their last WT20I series, they will both think they have a far greater chance of success in this match. Bangladesh Women are developing a strong group of bowlers but in reality their batting line-up is weak. India Women have a strong side and we are backing them to win this opening game of the series.
