ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024: West Indies And Bangladesh Set For Crucial Clash As Teams Adjust Lineups

West Indies may retain their lineup with Munisar, while Bangladesh could keep Dilara Akter despite her low score against England.

ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, WI vs BAN: The West Indies women follow through on a dominating win over Scotland and have Bangladesh on the way towards ensuring that they continue with their winning ways. With a necessity to stay within the top two of Group B, Bangladesh doesn’t appear to be underrated under the conditions of play here at Sharjah where it plays to the strengths of their bowling lineup, which is looking at a qualification lifeline at stake. It’s certainly every indication of a convincing West Indies outfit set to build consistency.

West Indies took a heavy thrashing from South Africa in the opener, but bounced back impressively against Scotland, which improved their net run rate and fetched them the second spot in the group. There is, however, cause for concern about the lack of runs from the top order, especially Hayley Matthews. The captain will want to lead by example to get into the game. Positive performances from Qiana Joseph and Deandra Dottin, combined with a well-disciplined bowling effort, present a great base for the team as they look to again deliver as a unit.

Bangladesh Looking To Improve Itself

Bangladesh started well by beating Scotland but were helpless against England and they gave a tough fight to Heather Knight’s side. Bangladeshi batting has been the weak link so far in the campaign. Sobhana Mostary of Bangladesh has been the highlight, scoring 36 and 44 respectively. Bangladeshi bowling has been quite effective. Bangladesh needs an improvement in batting performances if they want to disturb Group B.

Time And Location

Match 13 – Thursday, October 10 at 6:00 PM local time

Location: Sharjah Cricket Stadium

Teams And Probables

West Indies

In their last match, Hayley Matthews’s team made two changes, bringing in Ashmini Munisar and Chedean Nation while resting Zaida James, who sustained a facial injury, and omitting Shamilia Connell. Given Munisar’s role as a spinner, it’s likely she will be retained for the upcoming game, and the West Indies may stick with the same lineup.

Probable XI

Hayley Matthews (c), Qiana Joseph, Stafanie Taylor, Shemaine Campbelle (wk), Deandra Dottin, Chinelle Henry, Aaliyah Alleyne, Chedean Nation, Afy Fletcher, Ashmini Munisar, Karishma Ramharack

Bangladesh

Bangladesh made a change in their last outing, with Dilara Akter replacing Murshida Khatun. Despite scoring just 6 runs off 12 balls against England, Akter could retain her spot in the lineup for the next match.

Probable XI

Shathi Rani, Dilara Akter, Sobhana Mostary, Nigar Sultana (c & wk), Taj Nehar, Shorna Akter, Ritu Moni, Fahima Khatun, Rabeya Khan, Nahida Akter, Marufa Akter
