‘Bangladesh PM not invited to BRICS’: Tarique Rahman's govt minister rules out his India visit
Bangladesh foreign affairs minister Humaiun Kobir said an invitation was instead extended to the BIMSTEC Chair.
In the Women's Asia Cup 2026, India enters the semi-final against Bangladesh as heavy favorites, despite the latter's recent upset victory in 2018. The teams are set to clash at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, with India unbeaten in the tournament thus far. Bangladesh, however, will aim to repeat their 2018 performance by playing without pressure.
India boasts a superior head-to-head record, winning 20 out of 23 matches against Bangladesh, while Bangladesh's three victories occurred during the 2018 tournament. Smriti Mandhana and Shafali Verma are India's batting stalwarts, while Deepti Sharma poses a significant challenge for Bangladesh. Meanwhile, Bangladesh will rely on captain Nigar Sultana to lead the team to a victory, buoyed by their history of upsets.
