Bangladesh (BAN-W) and Australia (AUS-W) are all set to lock horns in the first T20 of the three-match series on Sunday, March 31, at the Shere Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Dhaka.

Bangladesh Women’s Team are gearing up to face Australia Women in the first match of the T20 series, looking to bounce back from their recent ODI defeat. Despite a tough outing in the ODI series, Bangladesh remain optimistic about their chances in the upcoming 20-over series.

Bangladesh’s batting woes have been evident, failing to put up competitive scores in the one-dayers. However, they aim to turn the tide with a better performance from key players like Sobhana Mostary and Fargana Hoque. Meanwhile, Australia enter the T20 series with high spirits after dominating the ODIs and would be looking to keep the momentum.
