Electing to bat first, Bangladesh didn\u2019t have a sound strategy to counter India\u2019s bowling plans, which were outstanding from the word go. Renuka was back to providing early breakthroughs to pick an excellent 3-10, where she stuck to good lines and lengths while giving no freebies.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Radha was also pick of the bowlers for India through her 3-14 and ensuring Bangladesh didn\u2019t have a big finish to their slow innings. Only captain Nigar Sultana (32) and Shorna Akter (19) showed some resistance for Bangladesh in a clueless batting innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Renuka got India its first scalp when Dilara Akter's swing across the line found deep mid-wicket, just a ball after hitting a slog above the same region for six, followed by which captain Harmanpreet Kaur moved the fielder a little squarer to set a trap for the dismissal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Renuka struck again when Ishma Tanjim was lured into going for a half-hearted drive, and the ball ballooned off the outside-edge to backward point. Bangladesh find themselves in huge trouble when in-form Murshida Khatun pulled a short ball straight to short mid-wicket fielder.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Nigar and Rumana Ahmed resorted to strike rotation to keep the scoreboard moving at a snail\u2019s pace. But left-arm spinner Radha struck on her first ball, getting the arm ball to go on straight after drifting in and castle Rumana through the gate.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pooja Vastrakar came back to have Rabeya Khan caught at mid-on, while Deepti Sharma had Ritu Moni stumped. India\u2019s tight bowling meant they never let the pressure go off Bangladesh, who tried to diffuse it when Nigar and Shorna Akter hit three boundaries collectively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
