Indian women to play 3 ODIs and as many T20Is in Bangladesh

MUMBAI: For the first time since its loss in the semifinals of the ICC Women's World Cup in Cape Town on February 23 at the hands of Australia, the Indian women's cricket team will be in action when it tours Bangladesh in June, TOI has learnt.

"The tour will comprise three ODIs, followed by as many T20Is. The side is currently undergoing a pre-tour high-performance camp at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore," a source in know told TOI.

With the BCCI's process to find a new head coach for the Indian women's team still on, former India allrounder Hrishikesh Kanitkar, who is the side's batting coach, is likely to be in charge of the side for the Bangladesh tour.

Around the same time in mid-June, an India 'A' women's team will participate in a Women's Asia Cup for emerging teams in Hong Kong.
