Radha Yadav sizzles as India whitewash Bangladesh in the Women’s T20I series

Team India continued their domination over Bangladesh in the Women’s T20I series as they defeated the hosts in the fifth and final T20I to register a clean sweep. Despite posting 156/5 on the scoreboard, India produced a top-class show, especially by their bowlers as the home team could only reach 135/6, losing the contest by 21 runs.

Smriti Mandhana, Dayalan Hemalatha take India to a competitive total

Opting to bat first after winning the toss, India Women posted a challenging total of 156/5 in their allotted 20 overs. The innings was anchored by significant contributions from Smriti Mandhana (33 runs off 25 balls), Dayalan Hemalatha (37 runs off 28 balls), and Harmanpreet Kaur (30 runs off 24 balls). Richa Ghosh’s quickfire 28 off 17 balls bolstered the Indian total.

Despite a spirited effort, Bangladesh’s bowling attack couldn’t quite contain the Indian batters, with Rabeya Khan being the standout bowler for Bangladesh, claiming 2 wickets for 28 runs in her 4 overs.
