    BAN-W vs IND-W: Bangladesh Women create history, record maiden ODI win over Harmanpreet Kaur's team
    Marufa Akter, a fast-medium bowler who claimed four wickets, completely dismantled the Indian batting order. 

    Digital Desk: The Bangladesh Women's Team made history on Sunday as they defeated India in an ODI match for the first time ever. Using the DLS system, the Nigar Sultana team defeated Harmanpreet Kaur and company by 40 runs in the first ODI of the three-match series that was hindered by rain. In a 153 chase, the hitters struggled, as they were bowled out for just 113 runs.

    Marufa Akter, a fast-medium bowler who claimed four wickets, completely dismantled the Indian batting order. Her dismissals of the middle order batsmen Amanjot Kaur and Sneh Rana, as well as the openers Priya Punia and Smriti Mandhana, shocked Kaur's team. Nahida Akter and Sultana Khatun each took one wicket in addition to Rabeya Khan's three-wicket haul.
