Preview:

The Qualifier tournament comes down to the final where Bangladesh Women will face off Thailand Women. The two teams won all the matches on their road to the final and confirmed their berths in the Women’s T20 World Cup to be hosted by Australia next year. This will be Thailand’s maiden appearance in a T20 Cricket World Cup. Coming into the tournament they recorded the longest winning streak in T20Is.

On the other hand, Bangladesh Women confirmed their place in 4th consecutive Women’s T20 World Cup. They were considered to be the favourites to win the tournament and have not let down those expectations. The two teams faced off three times in T20Is including once in the 2018 Asia Cup T20I that the Bangladesh Women won. The Bangladesh team registered wins in all those three matches.

Weather Condition/Report:

Another day without any rain threat is expected at the Forthill in Dundee. The weather forecast for Saturday here looks quite clear and so, a full game without any interruption is expected.

Pitch Condition/Report:

Bangladesh and Thailand chased down the targets in the Forthill during the semi-finals. Till that point, no team managed to chase a target in a match that lasted 20 overs at this venue. However, the targets being under 100 could be one of the reasons for this change.
