Bangladesh Emerging Women are set to take on South Africa Emerging Women in the third unofficial ODI at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Thursday.
In the previous ODI, Bangladesh Emerging Women thrashed South Africa Emerging Women by seven wickets to take a 2-0 lead in the five-match series.
In a complete all-round performance, Bangladesh Emerging Women restricted South Africa Emerging Women to 196. Nahida Akter and Ritu Moni starred with the ball. With the bat, Nigar Sultana's scintillating century and Rumana Ahmed's fine knock took Bangladesh Women past the finish line with ease.
Earlier, Andrie Steyn had given South Africa Women an excellent start with a hard-fought 80. Anneke Bosch also looked good before getting out for 45. However, a lack of contribution from the other batters saw South Africa Women get skittled out for only 196 runs, which eventually turned out to be inadequate.
South Africa Emerging Women would look to grab their first win of the series, while Bangladesh Emerging Women would be keen to wrap up the series with two games to spare.
