Here, we take a look at the entire highlights of the 14th match of the 2025 Women’s World Cup between Bangladesh Women and South Africa Women, as it panned out at the VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Monday, October 13.

Fargana consumed 76 deliveries to score just 30 runs while number three Sharmin Akhter scored a 77-ball half-century before falling to a runout.

South Africa Women lost opener Tazmin Brits for a first-ball duck to Nahida Akter in just the second over of the run chase.
