ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, IND vs BAN LIVE: India Beat Bangladesh By 18 Runs

Group A is considered one of the toughest groups in the 2020 edition of the ICC Women's World T20. With the likes of New Zealand and Australia in the side as well as mercurial teams like Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, the India women's cricket team face a potential banana peel in every single game. However, Harmanpreet Kaur's side are riding high on confidence after beating four-time and current reigning champions Australia by 17 runs in the opening game in Sydney. 

Smriti Mandana will not be playing the game today as she is suffering from viral fever. It will be interesting to see how much her absence will be felt during the game.
