Australia women’s team beat Bangladesh by 118 runs

Australia women’s team beat Bangladesh women’s team by 118 runs in the first match of the three-match ODI series at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Thursday.

After winning the toss, Bangladesh captain Nigar Sultana Joty chose to field first.

At one point, Australia were 146-7 in the 41st over and most sides would have been bundled out for less than 200 from there.

But not Australia, whose batting seems to never end, and up stepped Alana King as she joined Annabel Sutherland to guide the visitors to 217-7.

In replay, Bangladesh were bowled out for just 95 in 36 overs.
