The ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 keeps producing tight contests and the group stage game between Bangladesh Women besides New Zealand Women on 10 October 2025 carries extra weight. Points grow scarce as the table tightens – Bangladesh arrive buoyed by recent results, while New Zealand need a win to steady their campaign.

Match Details

• Venue – Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati
• Time: 3:00 PM IST

Last Match Performance & Current Form

Bangladesh Women

Bangladesh opened with a win over Pakistan; they chased a low total without panic and finished with 28 balls left. Rubya Haider scored 52 not out or Sobhana Mostary added 38 sharing a fourth wicket stand that removed any doubt. After two games the record stands at one win and one loss, yet the squad no longer carries the label of easy beats.

New Zealand Women

New Zealand began with a victory – slipped in the second outing. The top order reaches twenty or thirty before a wicket falls, but no batter has carried on past fifty. The run rate stays tidy yet rarely accelerates and the middle order has not found a way to lift the total late in the innings.

Key Players to Watch

Bangladesh Women

• Rubya Haider – She stayed calm against Pakistan and anchored the innings – the team will need her to do it again.
• Sobhana Mostary – She bats in the middle order, keeps the scoreboard ticking plus rebuilds partnerships.
• Fahima Khatun – She bowls and bats but also her change of pace should help on the slow Guwahati pitch.

New Zealand Women

• Sophie Devine – The captain times her acceleration well and her record makes her central to New Zealand’s plans.
• Suzie Bates – She opens as well as scores steadily – a solid start from her sets up the rest.
• Amelia Kerr – She bowls leg-spin and bats in the middle – either skill can swing the game.

Match Preview

Bangladesh rely on tight lines besides teamwork – New Zealand back experience and power. The pitch will probably slow as the afternoon wears on favouring Bangladesh’s spinners or medium-pacers.

Bangladesh want steady partnerships and a reachable total – their bowlers hunt wickets through accuracy next to patience.

New Zealand need their batters to turn starts into big scores. Devine besides Bates face the early swing and spin plus sharp fielding and a deep middle order may decide close moments.

Conclusion

On 10 October 2025 Bangladesh meet New Zealand in Guwahati. Bangladesh carry confidence but also aim to extend their early form – New Zealand seek rhythm and steadiness. Both teams hold match winners – the contest should stay tight as well as decided by clear skill rather than flair.
