The pitch in Dambulla has favoured batters so far and the conditions will be similar on Monday as well. Teams batting second have found it easier to chase the target. The weather is fine for a full-fledged match.
Thailand women need just one more win to qualify for the semi-finals and they will be trying to achieve that today. On the other hand, Nigar Sultana-led Bangladesh women are a more composed team. They will be eyeing to open their winning tally against Thailand today.
