DHAKA, Oct 15, 2025 (BSS)- Bangladesh Women's team will take on defending
champions Australia in their fifth game of the ICC Cricket World Cup tomorrow
(Thursday) at Visakhapatnam in India.
The match starts at 3.30 PM (Bangladesh Time). T-sports will telecast the
match live.
Bangladesh though made a good start to the tournament with a seven-wicket win
over Pakistan, they slipped thereafter, losing three straight matches.
However, apart from New Zealand, against whom they had a meek surrender by
losing the game by 100 runs, they came agonizingly close to beat England and
South Africa, only the wrong strategy and lack of support from luck ruined
the prospect.
Australia have been the most successful team in the World Cup history like
their Men's team, winning the silverware for seven times in 12 editions.
They also appeared to be on course of retaining the title after leading the
point table with seven points from four matches. It could have been eight
points easily had their game against Sri Lanka not abandoned due to rain.
The Aussie Women's will come into the Bangladesh match following a landmark
victory against India as they chased down 330 runs for a highest successful
chase in the Women's Cricket history.
Bangladesh looked to be no match for Australia at least but captain Nigar
Sultana Joty expressed her hopes to give them a tough flight.
"We talked about putting it on the right length, maybe we fell down, but we
showed good spirit (against England and South Africa)," Joty said.
"My team was very young but we kept going. I have told them to be proud of
how we have done and we have three more games left. The way we played we hope
we'll be able to give them a tough time in the middle."
A defeat in the match will leave Bangladesh's aspiration to play semifinal to
just complex mathematical equations while a victory will give them a slim
hope.
