Summary 

How did the game pan out?

Owing to the rain interference, the game was reduced to a 44-over per-side affair.

Bangladesh batters could not turn up while batting first and were restricted to 152.

Debutant Amanjot Kaur claimed a four-fer. Skipper Nigar Sultana (39) scored the most for the hosts.
