  1. How's stat?!

    A reminder, Bangladesh have never won against the West Indies in a Women's T20 match.

    I think this partnership will have to go long to reverse that trend.

  2. Ban 59-2

    Well, score predictor says 133 at the moment as play resumes with Nigar Sultana Joty driving new bowler Aaliyah Alleyne for one.

    The game's very much in the balance. If one of these two can bat on to the later overs, they could get to the 130 mark but if West Indies get their spinners going, they could really do some damage.

  4. Drinks break

    Ban 58-2 (Nigar Sultana Joty 19, Sobhana Mostary 11)

    Time for a drinks break. Bangladesh need this partnership to stick.

  5. Ban 58-2

    Hayley Matthews brings herself into the attack. Bangladesh are in recovery mode at the mo, rotating the strike with some singles.

  6. Kirstie Gordon
    England bowler on BBC Sounds

    I think if they get 134 they'll be absolutely delighted. They've still got a long way to go but they're building a platform.

  7. Missed West Indies' second wicket? Here's a replay:

  8. Ban 54-2

    And just to rub salt in the wounds, Nigar Sultana Joty finishes Afy Fletcher's over off by sweeping the spinner to the boundary for four more.

  9. Kirstie Gordon
    England bowler on BBC Sounds

    Well, Deandra Dottin is solemnly walking back to her place.

  10. Not out

    Nigar Sultana Joty survives. Deandra Dottin couldn't get her fingers under the ball.

  11. Kirstie Gordon
    England bowler on BBC Sounds

    Personally, I think it isn't out. The replay never lies.

  12. Umpire review

    Has Nigar Sultana Joty been caught? It looked like it in real time.

    The Bangladesh skipper hammers one straight to extra-cover, but does the ball make contact with the ground?

  13. Ban 50-2

    Another four. A bad delivery from Afy Fletcher and Nigar Sultana Joty sweeps it round the corner for four more.

    That brings up Bangladesh's fifty.

  14. Kirstie Gordon
    England bowler on BBC Sounds

    That was beautiful, absolute shot of the day. It just shows that there is something in this wicket to use, great use of the feet.

  15. Ban 46-2

    That'll lift the team. Bangladesh skipper Nigar Sultana Joty launches Afy Fletcher over the covers for four.

  16. Ban 40-2

    More spin. In comes Asmini Munisar who opens with one that sticks into the pitch, stays low, and ricochets just past the stumps after hitting Nigar Sultana Joty on the thigh.

    Bangladesh can't get going.

  17. Kirstie Gordon
    England bowler on BBC Sounds

    Very good from Afy Fletcher, keeping the stumps in play and bowling very straight.

  18. Ban 35-2

    In comes Bangladesh captain Nigar Sultana Joty who is 23 runs away from 2,000 in T20 internationals.

    Afy Fletcher comes into the attack for the fielding side and starts with a tidy over.

  19. Kirstie Gordon
    England bowler on BBC Sounds

    That wicket will really changes the balance and the tone of the game. Dilara Akter Dola was stepping across her stumps every time.

  20. Bangladesh are two wickets down now. Here's a replay of their first:
