Commentary

It is sad not to see a ball bowled in a match that had a semi-final spot on the line with one team in contention, playing, and another team, watching from their hotel rooms. With the match washed out, hosts Bangladesh Women crash out of the tournament and Thailand Women, scripting history, make it to the semi-finals. It would have been great to get even a 5-over game in, but the Sylhet rain robbed us of that opportunity too. Will we get the second match of the day in? Let's wait and see. For now, this is the pair of Bidipto and Divyansh, saying good bye. Keep following Sportskeeda!

Rain poured in heavy this morning dampening the pitch and the chances of play commencing.

BD-W vs UAE-W Dream11 Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Today's Playing 11, Player Stats, Pitch Report for Women’s Asia Cup 2022, Match 20

Hello and welcome to Match 20 in the Women's Asia Cup T20, 2022 live, from the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium! Bangladesh Women will take on United Arab Emirates Women in a must-win game for the hosts. Bringing all the action to you, here at Sportskeeda, will be the commentary pair of Bidipto and Divyansh. Before we get going, do give the preview a read down below.

Right. This is it - no looking back hereon for Bangladesh with their campaign up in the air. They have been helped by India humbling Thailand by a whopping margin and the equation is clear - a Bangladesh win and they go through to the semifinals of the Women's Asia Cup 2022. A loss, and it will pave the way for Thailand to script history.

Of course, there's a third team that will play co-protagonist in this story - the UAE. Chaya Mughal and Co. have had their moments thus far, but a collective batting performance has simply gone amiss, meaning that they only have pride to play for. They can be rest assured that the entire Thailand team will be rooting for them to script something special on Tuesday in Sylhet.

If that is to transpire, a lot will come down to their assortment of talented bowlers, led by teenage sensations Vaishnave Mahesh and Mahika Gaur. Esha Oza turned in a three-fer against Pakistan and should come into her own again on a surface that has aided spin all through this tournament.

Most teams have struggled with the bat this campaign and it has been no different with the UAE. The only difference is they have been one of the better teams in batting out their quota of overs. That of course, counts for nothing in this format unless a team has the requisite runs on the board and hence, the likes of Theertha Satish, Kavisha Edogade and Oza herself must look to throw caution to the wind. It won't be easy, however, against the spin factory at Bangladesh's disposal.

Speaking of Bangladesh, they will be hurting and rightly so, having snatched defeat from the jaws of victory against Sri Lanka on Monday. Requiring 14 to win off 2 overs in a rain-curtailed encounter, Inoka Ranaweera cut the Bangladeshi middle-order to size while a couple of run-outs only summed up the proverbial case of the panic button having been pressed.

There's just far too much reliance on skipper Nigar Sultana Joty and against a quality UAE attack, she needs the support cast, namely Murshida Khatun and Fargana Hoque Pinky, to step up. The bowling is in the safe hands of leggie Rumana Ahmed, who currently sits atop the wicket-takers' charts with 10 scalps (level with only Deepti Sharma). Sanjida Akter Meghla and Salma Khatun complete an extremely well-rounded spin attack while Jahanara Alam continues to do her bit with the new ball.

On experience and pedigree, the defending champions ought to start favorites in a must-win encounter. But that's where the catch is - nothing can be taken for granted and most certainly not at such a critical juncture in the competition. Even more so, when this Asia Cup has thrown up enough examples of teams defying the odds, meaning that the UAE will certainly fancy their chances.

They have the arsenal within their ranks to do it as well. And now, they also have a bit of extra support with the Thai team egging them on keenly. With the semifinal lineup yet to be decided as we head into the last day of the Round Robin stage though, we couldn't have asked for anything better in terms of a win for the tournament!
