The Sri Lanka Women vs Bangladesh Women match in the ICC Women's World Cup marked the most devastating batting collapse in the history of the game. Sri Lanka and Bangladesh both had some terrible downfalls, but it cost the most to Bangladesh, as their fallout led to a defeat in the game.
Sri Lanka didn't have the best of starts to their innings, as Marifa Akter delivered the breakthrough in the very first ball of the game. After Vishmi Gunaratne's wicket, the Lankan batters Chamari Athapaththu and Hasini Perera scored runs with ease and gave Sri Lanka a promising start.
Athapaththu completed a milestone of 4000 International runs in ODIs, while the half-centurion also reached a milestone of 1000 runs. After this, Lankan women were architects of their own collapse while Shorna Akter ran through the Lankan middle order. After Nilakshi de Silva's dismissal, the Sri Lankan women could only manage to score 28 runs off their last 103 balls and saw six wickets fall.
Bangladesh built on a safe chase until the 48th over under Nigar Sultana's presence
These runs came as a part of major partnerships between Sultana and Sharmin Akhter off 82 runs and later with Shorna Akter off 50 runs. However, the Bangladesh ship wasn't moving as swiftly as it could, and due to this overcautiousness, they collapsed in the dying moments of the game.
Sri Lanka stun Bangladesh with team hat-trick in match-turning final over of Women's World Cup
While chasing 203 runs total, Bangladesh collapsed from 191/4 in 48 overs to 195/9 in their 50 overs. In a tantalizing final dash, the Lankan women picked 5 wickets in the last two overs, of which 4 came alone in the first four balls of Chamari Athapaththu's final over of the match.
