Preview: On Wednesday, July 24, at the Rangiri Dambulla Stadium in Dambulla, Bangladesh Women (BAN-W) vs. Malaysia Women (MAL-W) in Match 11 of the Women’s Asia Cup 2024. In order to secure a spot in the playoffs, Bangladesh must win their next match and hope that Thailand, who has a higher Net Run Rate (NRR), loses to Sri Lanka. Bangladesh lost their first game against Sri Lanka and won their second against Thailand.
Malaysia, on the other hand, could be eliminated from the competition after losing two of their first three games. Even if they win the following game, their NRR of -4.150 will prevent them from making the playoffs. They do have a potential to damage Bangladesh’s chances; if the game goes in their favor, Group B will be more or less decided.

Pitch Report: The pitch at Rangiri Dambulla has tremendous bounce and carry, allowing batters to flourish early in the game.
