IND-W vs BAN-W Match 28 Results

5:26 PM IST Right then, a damp end to the league stage action of the 2025 ICC Women’s World Cup. Earlier in the day, England defeated New Zealand convincingly in Vizag. It was Sophie Devine's final ODI for the White Ferns, but the farewell didn’t go as they would have hoped. The tournament now moves into the knockout phase, starting on Wednesday, 29th October, with England taking on South Africa in the first semifinal in Guwahati. The second semifinal follows on Thursday, 30th October, as India face Australia in Navi Mumbai. Both matches will begin at 3 pm IST (9.30 am GMT). There’s plenty of men’s white-ball action to follow in the meantime, which you can track across the match centres. Until then, take care and goodbye!

5:09 PM IST Time for the presentation ceremony...

5:09 PM IST In pursuit of a revised DLS target of 126 in 27 overs, Smriti Mandhana walked out to open alongside a new partner, Amanjot Kaur, due to Rawal's injury. Mandhana picked up where she had left off in the previous game, while Kaur played the second fiddle. Bangladesh struggled to make an impact with the ball, which was made more difficult by the wet conditions, and there were also lapses in the field. India were cruising in the chase before the rain returned to bring an abrupt end to the game. On the bowling front, all six b options used by Harmanpreet Kaur picked up at least one wicket, with Radha Yadav, playing her first game of this World Cup, claiming three wickets.

5:04 PM IST Earlier, India opted to bowl first, but a spell of rain after the toss reduced the game to 43 overs per side. Renuka Singh Thakur showcased her threat with the new ball, troubling the Bangladeshi openers, who struggled to get her away. Neither opener could make a significant impact, and soon after Nigar Sultana Joty arrived at the crease, rain returned 12.2 overs into the innings. With the match reduced from 43 to 27 overs, Bangladesh faced a tricky situation in approaching their innings. Sharmin Akhter held one end, and although Sobhana Mostary sparked a brief flurry of runs, it wasn’t enough, and Bangladesh finished with 119.
