Congratulations to the England team for their comfortable victory.
If BD fielded and batted slightly better especially the fielding they would have created history today
Congratulations to England for winning the match.
Congratulations to Danielle Wyatt-Hodge for winning the PoTM.
Cheers..
England start their campaign on a winning note. It was always going to be about the spinners. And England had four of them. Three of them took wickets and it proved to be enough despite Ecclestone going wicketless. England also rushed their overs and before Bangladesh knew it they were behind the run-rate. Mostary and Joty were key for their side and the partnership was building when the latter ran herself out. Mostary kept fighting but she did not get much support from the others. Batting has been difficult here at Sharjah as we have seen over the four matches so far and tonight was no different. England got their tactics and fields spot-on and the bowlers executed their plans to perfection. Bangladesh who started with a win against Scotland fought well but end up losing tonight. Stay tuned for the presentation...
Heather Knight | England captain: Really nice to get a win. Pretty tough out there, conditions were tough for batting and boundary-hitting, Danny and Bouchier did well. It is not going to be beautiful or sexy in these conditions. Happy with the score it was a good total. Surface got slower and lower. We weren't far off-par, we pushed to 135 and that's what we prepared for. If we go on these conditions again, we need to graft and boundaries are hard to get, so minimise the dot balls and really happy for Linsey Smith, 6 years after her last T20 World Cup game for her to put in a performance like this. We had a look at what the surface did and what the bounce was like. She was picked on the first game that we watched, we picked Linsey on how she bowled, for the trajectory and she keeps the stumps in play with her height. That's what we have got to do, adapting to the conditions and watching that first game gave us a clue. [on facing South Africa] They had a convincing win in the first game, didn't they? They are always competitive, they bring the fire and passion but we have won here and looking forward to it.
Nigar Sultana | Bangladesh captain: We missed a good opportunity to beat a good side. Our bowlers have done a great job to restrict them. We kept the game in control after how they started in the powerplay. This kind of surface we need to have a good partnership. We did not get runs in the powerplay which cost us. I got out at the wrong time. [on Mostary] She played really well, last game also, pretty happy how she has been consistent and hope she does the same in the coming games.
