India Women will take on Bangladesh Women in the 28th match of the Women’s World Cup 2025. The clash is scheduled at Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy, Mumbai, on Sunday, 26 October, starting at 3:00 PM IST. Both teams will look to end their campaigns on a high as the group stage nears its end.
India Women
India Women have been in strong form, winning three of their six previous encounters. Led by Harmanpreet Kaur, the batting lineup featuring Smriti Mandhana, Pratika Rawal, and Harleen Deol will be crucial in setting or chasing big totals. The spin duo of Radha Yadav and Shree Charani, along with pacers Arundhati Reddy, Renuka Singha and Kranti Goud, will aim to keep Bangladesh’s batters under pressure.
Bangladesh Women
Bangladesh, under the captaincy of Nigar Sultana, have struggled for consistency in the tournament. Key batters such as Fargana Hoque and Rubya Haider will need to perform to post a competitive total. Bowlers like Nahida Akter and Fahima Khatun will look to strike early and contain India’s strong batting line-up. With both sides eyeing a strong finish, this game could be pivotal to save Bangladesh’s pride in the tournament.

Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy Mumbai pitch report
The venue offers a well-balanced pitch that favours both batters and bowlers. Early in the innings, pacers can extract some movement with the new ball, while the true bounce and quick outfield make strokeplay rewarding.
As the game progresses, spinners may find some turn and variable bounce in the middle overs. With excellent drainage and a fast outfield, the surface is likely to produce a high-scoring contest, giving both teams a fair chance to post or chase competitive totals.
