IND-W Win By 10 Wickets | India vs Bangladesh Highlights of Women's Asia Cup T20 2024 Semifinal: Bowlers, Smriti Mandhana Help Women in Blue Clinch Dominant Win to Enter Final

India have beaten Bangladesh in a convincing manner by 10 wickets, chasing down the paltry target of 81 in just 11 overs. Batting first, Bangladesh's batting went nowhere as they managed just 80 runs in 20 overs. Renuka Singh and Radha Yadav took three wickets each while Pooja Vastrakar and Deepti Sharma scalped one apiece. Smriti Mandhana then powered India's run chase with 55 runs off 39 balls as the Women in Blue cruised to a win. India enter the Women's Asia Cup final for a ninth time and Bangladesh, former champions, bow out on a rather timid note. All eyes on the Pakistan vs Sri Lanka semifinal now, which will determine India's opponents in the final! 

The Women in Blue have had no trouble whatsoever in scoring runs and India are inching closer to a big win here. Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma are doing this with relative ease. 

India have gotten off to a fine start and both Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma look to finish this off in quick time. Bangladesh needed early wickets to put any sort of pressure on India but that plan has not worked at all. Boundaries have come easy for India and this match is as one-sided as it gets. 

Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma have begun this run chase for India and they have kickstarted on a positive note, scoring six runs off the first over. 

The Indian women's national cricket team has been set up a total of 81 runs. The Indian team has a very great batting lineup and they might chase down the target easily. 

OUT! The Indian team looks in a hurry to wrap up Bangladesh Women as their eight-wicket goes down. Radha Yadav gets her third wicket of the match and Nahida Akter has to walk back. Nahida Akter b Radha Yadav 0 (2)

OUT! Radha Yadav strikes on the first ball of the last over as she dismisses Nigar Sultana. The Bangladeshi skipper was the last hope for her team and it is a very big wicket. Nigar Sultana 32 (51) c Deepti Sharma b Radha Yadav

With just three overs left, the Bangladeshi team has scored 60 runs for the loss of six wickets. All the eyes will be on skipper Nigar Sultana if Bangladesh wishes to reach a respectable total.
