Dilara played well during her short innings. Surely it's match over for Bangladesh. Remember, the winners of this match will play Sri Lanka in the final who beat Pakistan earlier today. B'desh 53/5 after 10. Nahida Akter picked up a boundary on the legside. A rare fulltoss from Deepti

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: For 9. Shree Charani accounts for her as Kranti Gaud takes a nice catch at mid-on. Nigar Sultana goes for a big shot but there is no real connection. Shorna Akter is the new batter. Bangladesh 39/3 after six overs. India were 72/1 at this stage. Bangladesh already much behind.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: She often sets the tone. Dilara Akter and Juairiya Ferdous need to start well for Bangladesh to have any chance. First boundary for Dilara. Over mid-on. Off the fifth ball. Bangladesh 4/0 after the first over.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Single and she reaches her maiden T20I century off 49 balls. What an innings. She needed some help from Bharti Fulmali who took a single off the penultimate ball. Shafali hit three fours and nine sixes during her innings.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Just four runs off it and there is also the wicket of Richa Ghosh that India have lost. Marufa Akter has done a great job. India 185/4

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Rebiya Khan gets Harmanpreet Kaur for 40. Kaur played a nice hand for sure. She took 33 balls for her runs. More than that, she really guided Shafali Verma well. Easy stumping for Nigar Sultana. Richa Ghosh is next. India 181/3 after 18 overs.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: They should score at least 200 from here. Shafali Verma has a good opportunity to score her first T20I century today. She deserves it. She has been just fantastic. 81 runs off just 40 balls.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Sultana at mid-off just let it go. It was an aerial shot from Harman. Sultana at least should have stopped it. Marufa Akter is furious, understandably so. One more boundary, this time from Shafali. Over mid-off. She follows it up with a massive six over deep midwicket. Excellent pull. Great over already for India. Wait, one more six. Over long-on. Plenty of power into that shot. India 150/ 2 after 15 overs. Shafali (102) has now hit maximum T20I sixes for aIndia.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Another sweep and another four. Off the first ball from Rebiya Khan, in the 14th over. Seems like Shafali Verma has been instructed to hang around. Not to be too adventurous. Not sure if that's the right thing to do. India 128/2 after 14 overs

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Via a nice sweep shot in the 12th over. It was her 11th ball. One more boundary for Harman. A nice cut on the offside. And just like that she is up and running. India 111/2 after 12 overs.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Harmanpreet is also struggling. India 101/2 after 11 overs. It appears Shafali is playing on a different pitch. Kamalini strugged too. 4 runs off nine balls for the Indian captain. Can she up the ante in the next few overs?

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: She does in style with a six. India 97/2 after 10 overs. She has taken 24 balls for her fifty. In the Asia Cup recently, she had hit three fifties and in the Asian Games opener against Japan she had scored 40 not out off just 15 balls. Purple patch for sure.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Goes for a sweep shot, finds a fielder at deep midwicket. She was really struggling. She made 3 off 10 balls. Can you believe it? Anyway, India Harmanpreet Kaur is next. India 86/2 after 9 overs. All of a sudden they have gone quiet. Kamalini fell in the the similar manner as she had against Japan, in a manner of speaking. Just that it was the long-on fielder.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: The momentum is of course broken with the Mandhana wicket. Gunalan Kamalini is the No.3 and naturally she will take some time to settle down. Just as we wrote that, Shafali picks up another six on the legside. India 85/1 after 8 overs.

IND-W vs BAN-W Live Score: Both batters look in great touch. Bangladesh in trouble for sure. Just as we said that, Smriti Mandhana goes back for 37. She went aerial on the legside and was caught in the deep. Nahida Akter provides the breakthrough for Bangladesh.
