Asian Games Women's T20I, 2023, Bangladesh Women vs Pakistan Women, 3rd Place Playoff: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report

Bangladesh Women and Pakistan Women will lock horns in the bronze medal match of the Asian Games Women’s T20I at Pingfeng Campus Cricket Field in Hangzhou on Monday.

Bangladesh Women started the season in the quarter-finals due to higher seeding in the ICC rankings. Their first contest was against Hong Kong Women, which was abandoned without a ball being bowled. They qualified for the semi-finals against India Women due to better ranking.

However, the Bangla Tigers faced a massive setback as they suffered an eight-wicket drubbing over Women In Blue. Bangladesh Women need to aim for a stronger comeback in order to go back home with a medal.

Meanwhile, Pakistan Women also encountered similar challenges in the competition with their first game against Indonesian Women getting abandoned due to heavy rain. In their semi-final clash against Sri Lanka Women, they faced a defeat by six wickets.

Led by Nida Dar, the Women in Green need to hit the drawing board and fill the chunks in their armor to bag the bronze medal in the third-place playoff.
