After Ramharack broke the Mostary-Sultana partnership, Bangladesh Women failed to continue the challenging momentum. Sultana scored 39 runs, but she didn’t get proper support on the other end.

Matthews and Taylor put 50+ runs opening partnership

West Indies Women comfortably chased the 104-run target in just 13 overs. Captain Hayley Matthews scored 34 off 22 balls, while her opening partner Stafanie Taylor retired hurt after scoring 27 off 29 balls. They had a 52-run opening partnership.
