KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, CMC – West Indies Under-19 Women limped out of the ICC Women’s Under-19 T20 World Cup at the Super Six stage when they were thrashed by 10 wickets by Bangladesh Under-19 Women here at the Bayuemas Oval on Tuesday.
In a contest that was reduced to 13 overs after rain delayed the start of the match, West Indies U19s could only get up to 54 for six after Bangladesh’s Nishita Nishi ran through the top order.
Bangladesh U19s, assisted by a whooping 16 extras, then romped to victory in just 8.5 overs, finishing on 55 without loss.

The result left the West Indies U19s winless at the Super Six stage, and despite the victory, Bangladesh U19s were also eliminated from the tournament after finishing third in Group 1.
After being sent in to bat, West Indies U19s were rocked by the off spin of Nishi, who captured the first three wickets.
She struck in her second over and third of the innings, when captain Samara Ramnath was caught at long on executing a loose drive.

Things went from bad to worse when in her next over she had Asabi Callender caught at deep square leg and Jahzara Claxton bowled for a first ball duck in consecutive deliveries, to leave the Windies 16 for three.
It was a position from which they would not recover, despite a fighting unbeaten 16 off 23 balls from Amrita Ramtahal.
Leg spinner Anisa Soba also helped to restrict the Windies, taking 2-13 from her three overs.

Facing a straightforward run chase, Bangladesh U19s started positively by scoring 11 runs off the opening over bowled by medium pacer Trisha Hardat.
It set the tone for the remainder of the innings, and openers Juairiya Ferdous, who finished unbeaten on 25 from 28 balls and Fahomida Choya, who ended on 14 not out, guided their team to their target with 25 balls to spare.
