ST. JOHN’S, Antigua – The West Indies Women’s cricket team secured a resounding victory over Bangladesh Women in their recent match, winning by 106 runs. Qiana Joseph’s powerful 63 runs off 36 balls and Deandra Dottin’s quickfire 49 off 20 balls propelled the West Indies to a challenging 201/6 in their 20 overs. Fahima Khatun (4-38) and Rabeya (4-26) were the pick of the Bangladesh bowlers, but couldn’t stem the flow of runs.
In response, Bangladesh struggled against the West Indies’ bowling attack. Sharmin Akhter’s 22 was the highest score for Bangladesh, who were bowled out for 95 in their allotted 20 overs. Hayley Matthews (2-6) and Cherry-Ann Fraser (3-15) led the West Indies bowling charge, dismantling the Bangladesh batting lineup. Several run-outs also contributed to Bangladesh’s downfall. A consistent stream of wickets throughout the innings prevented any significant partnerships from forming, ultimately sealing a convincing win for the West Indies.
