#BangladeshWomen vs #NewZealandWomen #ICCWomensWorldCup2022 This match comes to us from University Oval, Dunedin. What a terrible start it was for The White Ferns in the first match of this tournament. Playing in their backyard, and high on their confidence, New Zealand women came up short against the underdogs West Indies Women. With 6 runs needed in the last over, New Zealand imploded. They lost their remaining 3 wickets and handed West Indies the victory on a silver platter. However, their skipper Sophie Devine was the silver lining of the show. scoring a century to take the game deep and keep them in the game. Then came the Jess Kerr onslaught, her explosive innings brought New Zealand to the brink of victory only to falter at the last stage. Wounds would not have been healed yet, but they will be looking to bounce back in style today. Bangladesh Women are also coming off an equally disappointing loss in their first match of the tournament. After restricting South Africa to a modest total of 207 in the first innings, Bangladesh had every chance to chase this target down. However, after an impressive opening partnership, things took a turn for the worst. Their run rate throughout the chase was enough to force them to go hard in the slog overs in an effort to win, but after playing 49.3 overs, Bangladesh was bundled out for 175 runs. That defeat would have left a sour taste in their mouth. Today, both the teams have a chance to avoid an hiccup turn into a streak!
