The live blog from Outlook India reported that Pakistan women captain Fatima Sana came to bowl the first over and Dilara Akter along with Fargana Hoque, came to open the batting for Bangladesh women. The first two balls went for boundaries, giving Bangladesh a good start.
Pakistan’s Diana Baig got her first wicket of the match when she dismissed the set batter Sharmin Akhter in the 18th over. Akhter made 24 runs off 47 balls, including four boundaries.
As per Outlook India, despite leaking two boundaries in her first over, Fatima Sana continued her attack and bowled Fargana Hoque to get the first breakthrough in the match.
