The Indian women's cricket team is just two wins away from securing its eighth Women's Asia Cup title. When Harmanppreet Kaur and co take the field at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium on Friday, July 26, against Bangladesh in the second semifinal, they'll fancy their chances.
Such has been the way the Indian team has played in the continental tournament so far. India started off by hammering their arch-rivals Pakistan by seven wickets. The Women in Blue then romped home by 78 runs against the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and finished at the top of Group A with a decisive 82-run win over Nepal.
On the contrary, Bangladesh had an underwhelming start to their Asia Cup campaign. The team lost its campaign opener against the hosts Sri Lanka by seven wickets and looked out of sorts.
However, they made a strong comeback and registered a resounding seven-wicket win over Thailand. The Nigar Sultana-led side made mincemeat of Malaysia in their last group-stage fixture by 114 runs to book their place in the semis.
Bangladesh will have high hopes from their leg-spinner Rabeya Khan and slow left-arm orthodox bowler Nahida Akter. Both spinners have picked five wickets each and can make a difference if they find a track conducive to spin.
