We are back for Australia's reply. The two umpires and players have made their way out to the centre. Kate Pelle and Ines McKeon will open the innings. Bangladesh are starting with spin in the form of Nishita Akter Nishi. A slip in place. Here we go!
... THE RUN CHASE ...
Right then, Australia will be the happier of the two sides, but the chase is not going to be straightforward. They will face a steady dose of spin on a wicket that has offered plenty of turn. If Bangladesh can strike early, the belief in their camp will only grow stronger. This has all the makings of a low-scoring thriller. Buckle up!
Tegan Williamson is in for a chat. She says it felt good to have a full spell and she tried to target the stumps to be in the game. Adds that she looks to keep things simple and looks up to Alana King and idolises her. Mentions that they have prepared well and are in a great mindset and the chase shouldn't be a tough one.
Five missed chances in the field and 13 wides are uncharacteristic numbers for any Australian side but Bangladesh simply failed to capitalize. Afia Ashima Era looked impressive and brought some much-needed momentum to the innings with her arrival. However, in the final five overs, she scarcely got the strike, halting any chance of a late flourish. Leggie Tegan Williamson stood out with the ball for Australia with figures of 2 for 12 in 4 overs.
Australia finish on a high and will be pleased with their effort. Conceding only 17 runs in the last 5 overs, they ensured that Bangladesh fell short of the three-figure mark. It was a tale of Australia steadily chipping away at the wickets at regular intervals, despite not being at their best with the ball or in the field. For Bangladesh, their innings was plagued by a staggering 73 dot balls and the lack of meaningful partnerships meant they never found any rhythm.

OUT! RUN OUT! On a fuller length, on middle, Afia hits it to mid off and looks to sneak a single. The fielder, Lucy Hamilton collects the ball and has a direct hit at the bowling end and hits the target right. Afia is nowhere in the frame and Australia Women Under-19 manage to keep Bangladesh to just 91 runs.

FOUR! Much needed boundary for Bangladesh Women Under-19! They get past 90! Full and outside off, Afia throws everything at it and gets an outside edge that flies behind the keeper and races away to the deep third boundary.

Hits the deck hard, on a length, angling it into the batter, Afia Ashima Era is cramped for room as she miscues her pull to mid-wicket.

Gets it to deep third this time and rotates the strike over. Similar length, at the stumps.
