India has grabbed back to back two wins at the World Cup and thanks to ace leg-spinner Poonam Yadav whose glory is untamed. Restricting the game of Bangladesh, who won the toss and chose to field first, the Indians dismissed Bangladesh athletes with a win over 18 runs.
Poonam Yadav is unstoppable as she picks 3 wickets today.

Apart from the Yadav’s performance, 16-year-old Shafali Verma also had a great show by scoring 39 runs in just 17 balls. During the second inning, Bangladesh athletes had a chase of 22 runs in the last over but the all-rounder Shikha Panday restricted the game by giving just three runs with one wicket.
Shafali Verma's explosive knock of 39(17) has given #TeamIndia a flying start. 👊 #T20WorldCup #INDvBAN#TeamIndia – 68/2 at the end of 8 overs
