The Bangladesh women's cricket team is set to compete in their seventh Women's T20 World Cup, having qualified by remaining unbeaten in the Global Qualifier in Nepal. Led by captain Nigar Sultana Joty, who has been in stellar form with 190 runs in a recent tri-series, the squad is built around a strong core of experienced players. Notable players include Marufa Akter, expected to excel in English conditions, and Shorna Akter, who has shown her ability to impact games significantly. Their group stage includes formidable teams like Australia, India, and South Africa, making their match against Pakistan on June 22 critical for their chances of progressing.
