Time for the presentations...

Earlier in the game, after Nigar Sultana won the coin toss and put India Women into bat, the visitors were rocked early as they lost Priya Punia in the second over. Despite the early loss, Yastika Bhatia and Smriti Mandhana kept the scoreboard ticking. Having reduced to 68-3, Harmanpreet Kaur's 52 and Jemimah Rodrigues' 86 helped India get to a fighting total of 228. For Bangladesh Women, Nahida Akter was their most economical bowler on the day and had two wickets to her name.

In pursuit of 229 runs, Bangladesh Women were dealt twin blows as they lost both openers in the space of nine deliveries. Lata Mondal departed early as well and Bangladesh Women found themselves struggling at 38-3. Fargana Hoque and Ritu Moni got together and steadied the ship with a 68-run stand. However, once this partnership was broken, it all went downhill for Bangladesh Women. From 106-3, the hosts simply surrendered themselves against the spin of Devika Vaidya and Jemimah Rodrigues and in no time they were rolled over for 120.

A clinical bowling effort by India Women sees them register a comprehensive victory! With this massive 108-run win, the visitors have levelled the three-match ODI series! Having done well with the bat, the visitors took that momentum into their bowling effort. The pacers and spinners combined together and kept testing the Bangladesh batters from ball one. The pair of Fargana Hoque and Ritu Moni showed resistance against them but Devika Vaidya who was brought back into the attack delivered big time for Harmanpreet Kaur. Jemimah Rodrigues joined in on the act and piled more misery on Bangladesh Women. Devika Vaidya and Jemimah Rodrigues put on an absolute clinic of spin bowling to skittle Bangladesh Women out.

OUT! CAUGHT! That's it! Bangladesh Women have been bowled out for 120! Jemimah Rodrigues gets her fourth wicket and this has been a brilliant all-round performance from her. Bowls this one short and outside off. Marufa Akter slaps it hard and uppishly towards the right of the short cover fielder but Smriti Mandhana takes a sharp catch there and India have won the game by a huge margin of 108 runs!
