THE LOWDOWN
AUSTRALIA WOMEN
- Reigning champions Australia began their title defence in emphatic fashion by thrashing neighbours New Zealand by 97 runs in Paarl.
- Ashleigh Gardner was the star of the show with the ball, taking a five-wicket-haul at an economy rate of just four runs per over as New Zealand were skittled all out for just 76.
BANGLADESH WOMEN
- Bangladesh gave a good account of themselves against Sri Lanka in their opening match of the group, but ended up on the losing side by a margin of seven wickets.
- Whilst a number of batters got starts, ultimately no one could kick on and score a total substantial enough to give them a score big enough to defend.
THE PREDICTION
To all intents and purposes this game is a total mismatch. Australia are vastly superior in all departments and should demonstrate that here, provided no complacency gets in the way. Expect another dominating performance from Meg Lanning’s and another substantial victory whether they be batting or bowling first. For Bangladesh, they need to come out of this encounter still in with a chance of semi-final qualification, so avoiding a thrashing for the sake of their net-run-rate will be vital.
