In the second T20 match after the first game washout between Bangladesh Women’s A and Sri Lanka A, Dilara Akter and Murshida Khatun led the Bangladesh side to a commanding 7-wicket win over Sri Lanka on Tuesday.

Ahead of the T20 World Cup in the UAE, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) is making the most of every opportunity by organizing a white-ball series for the Bangladesh Women's 'A' team against Sri Lanka.

Despite this being an 'A' team tour, several senior national team players have been included in the squad.

Batting first, Sri Lanka posted 113 runs for the loss of 5 wickets. Sathya Sandeepani top-scored with 36, while Maisha Shihani contributed 25 runs. Fahima Khatun took 2 wickets for 10 runs for Bangladesh, and Rabeya Khan claimed 2 wickets for 18.

In response, Bangladesh Women's 'A' team chased down the target with two overs to spare. Dilara Akter played a match-winning knock of 47 off 34 balls, while Murshida Khatun added 30 runs from 34 deliveries, sealing a comfortable victory.
