Dhaka, July 22 (Ians) India and Bangladesh will be sharing the women’s Odi series trophy after the decider match ended in a thrilling and dramatic tie at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Saturday, with the series scoreline ending at 1-1.
Opener Fargana Hoque scored 107, her first Odi hundred, and also became the first centurion from Bangladesh in women’s 50-over international cricket. Her effort, along with Shamima Sultana’s 52, helped Bangladesh post a respectable 225 for 4 on a spin-friendly pitch.
In reply, knocks of 77 and 59 from Harleen Deol and Smriti Mandhana respectively kept India in the hunt for winning the match and series. But from 191 for four in the 42nd over, India dramatically lost their next six wickets for just 34 runs, including two in the 48th over, to be all out for 225 in 49.3 overs.
With no Super Over held due to the paucity of time, India and Bangladesh will be sharing the Odi series trophy.

Dhaka, July 11 (Ians) Sensational by their spinners helped India beat Bangladesh by eight runs in a thrilling second T20I and take an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the three-match series at Shere Bangla National Stadium, here on Tuesday.
After winning the toss and opting to bat first, India had a few batters getting starts but neither could convert, eventually posting only 95 for 8 in 20 overs — their lowest total in T20Is against Bangladesh.
Having a low total on the board, Deepti Sharma (3-12) and Minnu Mani (2-9) spun a web around Bangladesh and shared five wickets between them to keep Bangladesh in check before Shafali Verma cleaned up three tailenders in the final over to finish with 3-15 and bowling out the hosts for 87 runs.
In the run chase, Pooja Vastrakar gave 10 runs in the first over of the innings, which turned out to be the only over of fast bowling in India’s defence.

Navi Mumbai, March 20 (Ians) Against Mumbai Indians, fast bowling all-rounder Marizanne Kapp produced yet another economical spell to set the base for a dominating nine-wicket victory for Delhi Capitals in the Women’s Premier League (Wpl).
On a slow pitch which had some help for the fast bowlers, Marizanne got some swing to keep things tight in Power-play, including dismissing Yastika Bhatia and Nat Sciver-Brunt on consecutive deliveries to finish with 2-13 in four overs, which fetched her player of the match award.
But the South African felt the bowling group deserved the award. “To be honest, the whole bowling group deserves this (player of the match) award. Everyone bowled well today. On this wicket, every time we win the toss I want to bowl first because the ball does quite a bit. Just happy with the win and the performance,” she said in the post-match presentation ceremony.

Mumbai, March 16 (Ians) The Gujarat Giants managed to hold their nerve to get back to winning ways by registering an 11-run win over Delhi Capitals in match 14 of the Women’s Premier League (Wpl) at the Brabourne Stadium on Thursday.
After scintillating fifties from Laura Wolvaardt and Ashleigh Gardner took Gujarat to 147/4 in 20 overs, the bowlers did well, and coupled with mistakes from Delhi’s batters, were able to reduce them to 100/8 by the 15th over.
But Arundhati Reddy gave Gujarat an almighty scare with her 17-ball 25 and shared a partnership of 35 off 21 balls with Shikha Pandey. But with her falling in the 18th over meant Gujarat eventually finished on the right side of the result and pushed Royal Challengers Bangalore to the bottom of the points table.
After captain Meg Lanning survived a pretty close on the very first ball off Kim Garth, Shafali Verma got going by lofting...
