HIGHLIGHTS

  • 17:29 (IST)

    OUT! Some poor calling between the batsmen means Jemimah has to walk. She plays one straight to the fielder and rushes but is sent back. The throw is a bit off but the 'keeper does well. 

  • 17:15 (IST)

    OUT! Panna Ghosh gets the big wicket of Harmanpreet. The over had started well with Rodrigues getting a boundary. However, the Indian skipper plays a tame shot straight to point and has to walk back. 

  • 16:58 (IST)

    SIX AND OUT! Shafali has to walk. She begins the fifth over by hitting Panna Ghosh for a six before playing out a dot. She goes for a big shot again thereafter but is caught by Shamima Sultana, who had to juggle the ball a couple of times before completing the catch. 

  • 16:54 (IST)

    The first bowling change is made as left-arm orthodox spinner Nahida Akter is brought into the attack, perhaps due to how much joy Shafali had against Alam. The ploy works to begin with as India manage only two runs off the first four balls. However Jemimah changes that in the next delivery as she charges down the ground and slams a six to long-off with a classy shot! 8 runs come off the over. 

  • 16:46 (IST)

    SIX, FOUR, FOUR! Shafali is dealing in boundaries. Never mind that India lost a wicket, she absolutely creams one over the long-off boundary for her third six of the match thus far. Follows that with a boundary with a lofted shot that goes over mid-off and runs away to the ropes. She then runs two before heaving and missing at a slower ball. Ends the over with a lofted shot straight down the ground that goes for four. 

  • 16:40 (IST)

    OUT! Off-spinner Salma Khatun shares the new ball with Alam and she gets an early wicket. She starts with giving away a single to Bhatia before Shafali slams her second six of the match over long-on! This is followed by a dot and another single. Bhatia charged down the ground but is completely foxed and the keeper completes an easy stumping. 

  • 16:37 (IST)

    SIX! Shafali wastes no time. Taniya started the innings by playing out two balls before taking a single. Shafali plays out the first ball before heaving a massive shot over deep extra cover. Good start for India. 

  • 16:04 (IST)

    Toss update: Bangladesh have won the toss and have chosen to field first. That decision was expected. Once again the onus is on India to set a target. The real question here is whether or not their batsmen can do a better job than they did in the previous game. 

  • 15:32 (IST)

    Their confidence on a high after the impressive win over title holders Australia, India will look to carry forward the momentum against a plucky Bangladesh in their second Group A match of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup on Monday. 

17:29 (IST)

OUT! Some poor calling between the batsmen means Jemimah has to walk. She plays one straight to the fielder and rushes but is sent back. The throw is a bit off but the 'keeper does well. 

17:26 (IST)

Leg-spinner Fahima Khatun now comes into the attack and her first over continues to build pressure on the Indians. Only four runs come off the over. It will be interesting to see how the Indians compensate for this in the death. 

17:22 (IST)

The last two overs have been quiet ones for India. Five came off the 11th over and only four came off the 12th. Jemimah knows she will likely have to bat deep now and is thus not willing to take any risks. Neither is Deepti Sharma. 

17:19 (IST)

Indian fans showing their support in the best ways. 

17:15 (IST)

OUT! Panna Ghosh gets the big wicket of Harmanpreet. The over had started well with Rodrigues getting a boundary. However, the Indian skipper plays a tame shot straight to point and has to walk back. 

17:10 (IST)

Another bowling change now as leg-spinner Rumana Ahmed now comes into the attack. Jemimah starts the over with a single before Harmanpreet plays out a dot ball then takes a single herself with a shot towards long-on. Good over for Bangladesh, this. Only 3 runs came off it after Jemimah ends the over with another single. 

17:07 (IST)

Rodrigues starts the seventh over with a boundary that owed more to the fielder at long-on making a rookie mistake and letting the ball through. Overall another decent over for the Indians as they got 7 runs off it. 

17:03 (IST)

Nahida comes on for her second over and starts by giving away a single to Jemimah. Harmanpreet plays a lovely late cut to get a boundary and maintain the scoring rate. India take 7 runs from the over. 

16:58 (IST)

SIX AND OUT! Shafali has to walk. She begins the fifth over by hitting Panna Ghosh for a six before playing out a dot. She goes for a big shot again thereafter but is caught by Shamima Sultana, who had to juggle the ball a couple of times before completing the catch. 

16:54 (IST)

The first bowling change is made as left-arm orthodox spinner Nahida Akter is brought into the attack, perhaps due to how much joy Shafali had against Alam. The ploy works to begin with as India manage only two runs off the first four balls. However Jemimah changes that in the next delivery as she charges down the ground and slams a six to long-off with a classy shot! 8 runs come off the over. 

16:51 (IST)

The fourth over was a relatively quiet one. Jemimah plays out two dots against Khatun before taking a single with a shot towards cover-point. Shafali then gets another single with a shot towards mid-wicket. Jemimah runs another single before Shafali ends the over with a double. 

16:46 (IST)

SIX, FOUR, FOUR! Shafali is dealing in boundaries. Never mind that India lost a wicket, she absolutely creams one over the long-off boundary for her third six of the match thus far. Follows that with a boundary with a lofted shot that goes over mid-off and runs away to the ropes. She then runs two before heaving and missing at a slower ball. Ends the over with a lofted shot straight down the ground that goes for four. 

16:40 (IST)

OUT! Off-spinner Salma Khatun shares the new ball with Alam and she gets an early wicket. She starts with giving away a single to Bhatia before Shafali slams her second six of the match over long-on! This is followed by a dot and another single. Bhatia charged down the ground but is completely foxed and the keeper completes an easy stumping. 

16:37 (IST)

SIX! Shafali wastes no time. Taniya started the innings by playing out two balls before taking a single. Shafali plays out the first ball before heaving a massive shot over deep extra cover. Good start for India. 

16:32 (IST)

National anthems are done and the match is about to get underway. India openers Shafali Verma and Taniya Bhatia are out in the middle. Jahanara Alam has the new ball in her hand. 

16:27 (IST)

Alam is another key player for Bangladesh and she was a part of the IPL Velocity team under Mithali Raj in India's domestic Women's T20 Challenge tournament in Jaipur last year. Bangladesh captain Salma Khatun, their most experience player, can also chip in with both bat and ball. 

16:16 (IST)

For Bangladesh, the key players will be all-rounder Jahanara Alam and top-order batswoman Fargana Hoque. The 26-year-old seasoned Hoque has a T20 International hundred to her name. She had played a major role in Bangladesh's group stage win over India in 2018 T20 Asia Cup. 

16:09 (IST)

Another key middle-order batswoman Deepti Sharma came good against Australia with an unbeaten 49 off 46 balls and she would look to continue her good form. Medium pacer Shikha Pandey also bowled well against Australia and Harmanpreet is happy that her team is not dependent on a few players only. 

16:04 (IST)

Toss update: Bangladesh have won the toss and have chosen to field first. That decision was expected. Once again the onus is on India to set a target. The real question here is whether or not their batsmen can do a better job than they did in the previous game. 

15:58 (IST)

Captain Harmanpreet and opener Smriti Mandhana, who both have done well in the tri-series before this World Cup, contributed little with the bat in the previous match and both will need to fire for India to put up a big total or chase down a target. 

15:55 (IST)

India will, however, need to improve their batting performance as they scored a below par 132 against Australia. Since the tri-series preceding this World Cup, the Indian batting has been inconsistent and has not posted big totals barring a few matches. They could have lost the match against Australia also, but for Poonam's (4/19) exploits. 

15:50 (IST)

In the last five meetings between the two sides, India lead 3-2 on head-to-head record and a win on Monday will take them closer to the knock-out rounds from the five-team group.

15:45 (IST)

Jemimah Rodrigues and 16-year-old promising opener Shafali Verma, who hit a typically aggressive 29 off 15 balls against Australia, were not a part of that Asia Cup team and the duo will need to play crucial roles if India want to beat Bangladesh. 

15:41 (IST)

Leg-spinner Poonam Yadav's magical spell helped India beat Australia by 17 runs in the tournament opener on Friday but the Harmanpreet Kaur-led side can't afford to take Bangladesh lightly as their eastern neighbours had beaten them twice in the 2018 T20 Asia Cup. 

15:32 (IST)

Their confidence on a high after the impressive win over title holders Australia, India will look to carry forward the momentum against a plucky Bangladesh in their second Group A match of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup on Monday.

Latest update: OUT! Some poor calling between the batsmen means Jemimah has to walk. She plays one straight to the fielder and rushes but is sent back. The throw is a bit off but the 'keeper does well.

Preview: The Indian women's cricket team will look to continue their winning momentum when they take on Bangladesh in an ICC Women's T20 World Cup clash at Perth on Monday.

On Friday, India successfully defended 132 against four-time champions Australia at the Sydney Showground Stadium and began their World Cup campaign with a hard-fought win.

Deepti Sharma contributed with a valuable knock of 49* and Poonam Yadav turned the match in India's favour by picking up four wickets.

On Monday, a furious WACA pitch will welcome both teams. Bangladesh have beaten India on a number of occasions in this format, with the most notable being in the final of the Asia Cup in 2018 where they won by three wickets.

The good news is about the top performers in batting and bowling department from that fateful tour. Match winner Poonam Yadav will still have the memories of 2018's Asian Cup afresh where she stifled Bangladesh batters with astounding bowling figures of 4/9.

Smriti Mandhana will be waiting to avenge her 2016 T20 World Cup outing when leg spinner Fahima Khatun's sent her back to the pavilion for a duck.

Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur is the shining star against the new entrants, with scores of 40 and 77 in 2014 and 2016 edition of World Cup, bagging player of the match in both outings.

There remain concerns for India in the batting department, largely due to the middle order with Veda Krishnamurthy still yet to get into the groove. Their batting at the death will also have to improve.

Bangladesh look fairly balanced in bowling and fielding and are coached by former Indian wicketkeeper batter Anju Jain. The Arjuna Awardee and former opener played 65 ODIs and 8 Tests and has been at the helm from 2018.

Bangladesh's highest fast bowling wicket-taker is Jahanara Alam, who possesses both pace and control. The WACA pitch historically known for good pace bowling and Alam's pace and swing should be an ideal fit.
