Women’s World Cup: Debutant Rubya Haider's Unbeaten Fifty Helps Bangladesh Beat Pakistan By Seven Wickets
Debutant Rubya Haider: Bangladesh clinched an easy victory against Pakistan in the third match of the Women’s World Cup at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Thursday, to get their campaign rolling. Bangladesh bundled out Pakistan for just 129 runs before chasing down the target in 31.1 overs.
Like Pakistan, Bangladesh too started their batting innings on a shaky note as opener Fargana Hoque was dismissed cheaply for a 17-ball two. The top-order batters struggled to score runs as debutant Rubya Haider and Sharmin Akhter could only get to 23/1 in 10 overs. Akhter’s struggle ended on the final ball of the 12th over when Rameen Shamim struck, thereby ending the former’s innings of a 30-ball 10.
Rubiya and skipper Nigar Sultana then stitched a composed third-wicket partnership of 62 runs to anchor the innings. After the wicketkeeper-batter’s dismissal, Sobhana Mostary scored a quick 19-ball 24, while the opener finished unbeaten at 54 as Bangladesh secured a slow yet easy win.
