Lahore:  Complete performance from Bangladesh women saw them crush Pakistan A by 167 runs in their ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup Qualifier warm-up match at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium.

Opting to bat first, Bangladesh captain Nigar Sultana led from the front with a 72-ball 70, striking 10 boundaries and a six. Her third-wicket partnership of 109 with opener Farzana Haque (50 off 85) formed the backbone of the visitors’ innings. Despite a middle-order collapse that saw them slip to 210 for 9, tailender Jannatul Ferdus played a game-changing cameo, remaining unbeaten on 46 from just 34 balls to lift the side to 276 all out in 49.4 overs. Pakistan A bowlers Umm-e-Hani and Waheeda Akhtar claimed three wickets apiece, with Tania Saeed adding two more to her name.
