Women’s U19 Asia Cup 2024: Trisha makes fifty in India’s eight-wicket win over Bangladesh
G. Trisha made a fine unbeaten fifty to guide India to a facile eight-wicket win over Bangladesh in its first Super Four match of the Women’s Under-19 T20 Asia Cup here on Thursday.
Chasing a modest 81, India raced past the target in 12.1 overs with Trisha making 58 not out off 46 balls with 10 fours. India ended up at 86 for two.
However, India had started the chase on a shaky note, losing opener G. Kamalini for a four-ball duck and Sanika Chalke (1) when the team score was on 22.
But Kamalni and captain Nikki Prasad (22 not out, 14b; 1×4, 2×6) added 64 runs for the unbroken third-wicket alliance to take India home.
Earlier, left-arm spinners Ayush Shukla and Sonam Yadav shared five wickets among them as India limited Bangladesh to 80 for eight in its full quota of overs.
India now leads the Super Four table with five points, followed by Bangladesh, which has four points.
