Quick Bangladesh vs Scotland Women’s T20 World Preview
Bangladesh might have qualified for this women directly but they are currently ranked ninth on the ICC T20I Rankings. That is down to their recent performances against the top notch nations in the Women’s Asia Cup in which they managed to overcome Malaysia and Thailand but lost to India and Sri Lanka.
And just prior to that, in the home series against India, Bangladesh had been roundly beaten 5-0.
The good news for the Nigar Sultana-led Bangladesh is they have been playing against these higher-ranked nations which would have given them the experience to get going.
On the other hand, Scotland qualified for this tournament on the back of a strong performance in the Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier that was held in UAE itself.
Not only did Scotland win three of their four league matches, they then went on to surprise Ireland in the semifinal to make it to this tournament. In the final, however, they were crushed by the strong Sri Lankan side.
Scotland’s experience in these conditions might help them put up a strong challenge.
All Eyes On
Kathyrn Bryce, the Scotland captain who ended the Qualifier as the third-highest wicket-taker and the fourth-best batter. Bangladesh will be banking on Nigar Sultana who has the most runs in the history of Bangladesh T20I cricket, 1944, to the next-best of 1253.
