9:18 PM IST and 4:48 PM Local Time: The rain follows the Scotland victory in Edinburgh but no dampening in the Scottish dugout. The Bryce sisters marshall the Scottish unit to a dominant win over Bangladesh, making it two-in-two victories in the ensuing Tri-Nation series.In a tricky chase, Darcey Carter and Katherine Fraser jolted a 33 runs opening stand before a Marufa Akter ballet catch at deep square leg sent the swashbuckler packing. Following Carter's dismissal for 23, Kathryn Bryce joined her for almost four overs before the rain poured in with the score 56/1 in 8.1 overs.
A 15 mins break later, the rain lightened and the play resumed. The pair tried to carry the baton from where they left but Katherine Fraser's struggling knock came to an end as the team neared 90. The required run rate was never a problem when Kathryn Bryce joined her sister. She tore apart the bowlers left, right, and centre. In no time, Kathryn reached her fifty in 30 balls. With eight runs needed from five overs, it was done and dusted for Bangladesh Women as the Bryce sisters carried the team home.
Winning the toss and electing to bat first, the Bangladesh openers struggled with the bat in the powerplay. They failed to get going well against the pace attack of Kathryn Bryce and Gabriella Fontenla. The latter bowler four overs straight in a spell, conceding eleven runs and picking up a wicket. She flirted with the edges of the bat consistently. Bangladesh were 46/3 in the ninth over before a 42 runs stand between Nigar Sultana Joty and Sobhana Mostary gave them hopes of a respectable total.
Abtaha Maqsood had the last laugh over Mostary, who was dismissed for run-a-ball 22 in the 15th over. With wickets in hand, Joty switched gears despite the dismissal of Shorna Akter after a well played cameo at the fav stages of the innings. Her 39-ball 46 including five fours and a six propelled Scotland Women to 133/5 in 20 overs.
