Bangladesh are ready for their second ICC Women's Cricket World Cup, as they have announced their 15-member squad for the upcoming ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025, which India and Sri Lanka (only Pakistan Women related matches) will host between September 30 and November 2, 2025.
Bangladesh Women qualified for the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2025 after finishing as the runners-up in the Qualifiers, where the hosts Pakistan Women won the title, and West Indies Women finished in the third position with the same points but a lesser net run rate than the Tigresses. As only the top two teams could qualify for the upcoming Women's World Cup, the 2013 runners-up West Indies will miss the tournament.
Bangladesh Women will start their journey in the upcoming CWC with the match against Pakistan Women at Colombo in Sri Lanka. Then the Tigresses will face England, New Zealand, South Africa, Australia, Sri Lanka, and the hosts India, respectively.
