- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.4 short and wide, goes to cut, thin edge well held by the keeper. 36/21.1 lazy lazy running... Good length ball on fifth stump, prods at this and a thick edge goes into short fine leg. Murshida perhaps didn't think the throw was going to come to the non-striker's end and took her sweet time jogging for the single, only to get a rude awakening by a one-bounce direct hit which connected with her bat at least a foot short. Murshida was also severely guilty of ball-watching, took a long time to even get moving in the first place after Sultana called for the run from the non-striker's end. There was nothing good about what Murshida did in that sequence. 8/19.5 bullseye! Fullish length ball on fifth stump, spins in past a flick across the line and zings into off stump halfway up. 71/315.2 length ball on the stumps, heaves this flat to deep midwicket. Fielder comes in 15 yards off the rope and takes a safe chest height catch. 95/415.4 wild charge down the pitch to a good length ball on sixth stump. Nowhere close to getting to the pitch of the ball and flails over it before the keeper takes the bails off for a simple stumping. 96/517.1 full on fifth stump, goes for a huge slog heaving over midwicket but it splices up to extra cover and lobs into the hands of the fielder on the ring for a simple catch. 105/716.3 Well, this is frankly embarrassing running between the wickets. Fuller on off, tapped into the covers and sets off for a single. Moni stops running three-quarters of the way down the pitch and for some inexplicable reason turns to look back at her partner arriving at the striker's end. Meanwhile, the throw is coming to the non-striker's end and hits the stumps with Moni four yards short and looking the wrong way over her back shoulder to the leg side when the throw arrived from the off side to where she nudged the ball. 102/619.3 charges a length ball on seventh stump and goes to slog this after being beaten in flight. A top edge swirls behind the keeper and the fielder at short fine leg charges across and cuts off the teammate at short third to take a tumbling catch. 119/8Extras13 (b 4, w 9)TOTAL126/8 (20 Overs, RR: 6.3)Did not bat: Marufa AkterFall of wickets: 1-8 (Murshida Khatun, 1.1 ov), 2-36 (Shamima Sultana, 4.4 ov), 3-71 (Sobhana Mostary, 9.5 ov), 4-95 (Nigar Sultana, 15.2 ov), 5-96 (Lata Mondal, 15.4 ov), 6-102 (Ritu Moni, 16.3 ov), 7-105 (Shorna Akter, 17.1 ov), 8-119 (Nahida Akter, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.3 full on the stumps, goes to drive down the ground trying to clear mid-on but miscues this off the splice and it lobs up gently to mid-on for a simple catch taken jogging forward reaching in front of her body at thigh height. 17/15.1 fullish length ball on fourth stump, Gunarathne checks her drive and the ball lobs up ever so gently to Marufa, who waits for the ball to come down in her follow-through and gleefully takes a simple catch at waist height. 25/25.2 bullseye! Good length ball seams in from the fourth stump channel and shoots low underneath a flat-footed defense before clanging into the outer half of off stump halfway up. 25/3Extras3 (nb 1, w 2)TOTAL129/3 (18.2 Overs, RR: 7.03)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Chamari Athapaththu, 3.3 ov), 2-25 (Vishmi Gunaratne, 5.1 ov), 3-25 (Anushka Sanjeewani, 5.2 ov)
