Hosts Bangladesh will kick off the Women’s Asia Cup against Thailand women. Thailand women last featured in the T20 World Cup qualifiers and managed to beat PNG women and UAE women. However, they lost to Bangladesh women by 11 runs. Bangladesh women are a superior team but Thailand women challenged them which will be a motivation for them heading into this crucial game.
The T20 World Cup qualifiers were the last tournament for Bangladesh women as well. However, they had a successful stint as they managed to win the tournament after defeating Ireland women in the final.
The surface will be on the slower side and scoring against spinners won’t be easy. Teams need to score runs with the new ball to reach a decent total. The team winning the toss should bat first.
There is a 60 per cent chance of rain on the match day. The humidity will be 73 per cent while the temperature will hover around the high 20s.
