The fourth qualifier match of ICC World Cup 2025 took place on 17 April 2025 at Lahore City Cricket Association ground between Bangladesh and West Indies Women’s team. The day began with the toss that favoured the Bangladesh Women’s team and they chose to bat first. The consistent performance of Fargana and Sharmin whose scores 42 and 67 respectively helped their team to sum up their scoreboard with a decent total of 227. Whereas, the West Indies women’s team doesn’t have the chance to break their attacking performance against both the spin and pace.
The day ended with the second victory of the West Indies Women’s team against the hattrick winners Bangladesh Women’s. Though it didn’t affect the position and NRR of Bangladesh at the points table it did pull back the assured declaration of their entry as a qualified team for the upcoming ICC World Cup 2025.
