BD-W vs IN-W Dream11 Prediction: Bangladesh women's cricket team will be seeking revenge when they host India women in the first T20I match at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Sunday. The Indian women's cricket team is set to return to international cricket almost three years after their multi-format home series against Australia in December-January 2023/24.
Both teams produced memorable contests and made headlines for various reasons during India's tour of Bangladesh in July 2023. India managed to win the three-match T20I series by 1-2 but the hosts pulled off a historic win in the third game to display their fighting spirit. Bangladesh, ranked 9th in the ICC women's t20i team standings, will be looking at home advantage and their win in the last encounter at home.
Harmanpreet Kaur-led Indian side defeated Bangladesh by eight wickets while chasing a 52-run target in the last meeting at the Asian Games 2023 in Hangzhou and are clear favourites to kick off the upcoming five-match series with a win on Sunday.
