Bangladesh women’s team head coach, Hashan Tillakratne, believes patience is needed if the Tigresses are to find a foothold in international cricket.

Nazmul Abedeen Fahim, a revered figure in the sporting fraternity and a mentor of many cricketers here, once closely monitored women's cricket as its wing development manager. The veteran coach identified some vital issues that the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) should give highest priority in order to ensure proper growth of women's cricket in the country. The excerpts of his observations are as follows:

Despite showing huge potential after winning the Women's Asia Cup in 2018, the Bangladesh national cricket team were unable to capitalise on the triumph to take things to the next level. The Daily Star's Ekush Tapader spoke to the chairman of the Bangladesh Cricket Board's women's wing, Shafiul Alam Chowdhury Nadel, to get an overview of the women cricketers, their current state and the future plan regarding them during an exclusive interview. The excerpts of the interview are as follows:

The 2018 Asia Cup triumph was a watershed moment for women's cricket. It turned heads, showed that women cricketers in the country can bring glory to the nation despite taking a backseat to the men's game in terms of the magnitude of facilities, fan following, and so forth. Five years on, there is a certain stagnation with little progress.

Following allegations of favouritism and willfulness from some senior players, Manjurul Islam Monju, who already lost his place as the team manager, is set to be removed from the chief selector's post of the national women's cricket team.

All-rounder Lata Mondol will lead the Bangladesh Emerging Women’s Cricket team in the ACC Emerging Women’s Asia Cup 2023 in Hong Kong next month.

Bangladesh women’s cricket team handed a 55-run defeat to United States in their third and final group stage game in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup Qualifiers at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket stadium in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday.

Bangladesh appear confident to book their place in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup next year by finishing as the top team in the four-team group in its Qualifier tournament, scheduled to be held in the UAE from September 18 to 25.

Following a noteworthy campaign in their maiden ICC Women’s ODI World Cup earlier this year, Bangladesh women's cricket team are now shifting their focus on the shortest format of the game as they look to prepare for the T20 World Cup qualifiers, scheduled to be held in Dubai in September.

The Bangladesh women's cricket team tuned up well in the first official warm-up game against their Irish counterparts ahead of the ICC Women's World Twenty20, which will get underway from November 9 in Guyana. Salma Khatun's side registered a comfortable six-wicket victory over Ireland at the Providence Stadium in Guyana in a day-night match on Sunday.

Tigresses are on a roll after their recent successes have garnered the attention of not only fans in Bangladesh but the cricketing fraternity as well. Now they will prepare to embark on a new mission, this time to play in a World Cup.

Amidst the disappointing performances from the men's team, the Bangladesh women's cricket team continued to shine bright as Salma Khatun and Co. clinched the ICC Women's World T20 Qualifiers title beating Ireland by 25 runs in the final at the Kampong Cricket Club ground in Netherlands yesterday.

Yesterday at the Malahide Cricket Club Ground in Dublin was a special day for the Bangladesh women's cricket team in more ways than one. They continued their upward graph since winning the Women's T20 Asia Cup in Malaysia earlier this month by winning the second T20I against Ireland by four wickets and taking an unassailable 2-0 lead -- their first bilateral series win -- in the three-match series.
