ESPNcricinfo Awards 2023 Women's ODI bowling winner: Marufa four, Bangladesh won

That brought Bangladesh into the game early, after they posted a modest 152 batting first. They had never beaten India - they had done well in the T20I series, but this was not looking like a big enough total against the higher-ranked side.

Marufa got the ball to nip away slightly from Mandhana, who played the cut shot nevertheless, guiding the ball to a diving Nigar Sultana, who completed a great catch behind the stumps. A few overs later Mandhana's opening partner Priya Punia too fell against Marufa, to a good catch at mid-on, when she tried to hit through that region; Murshida Khatun dove forward to grab the catch, inches from the grass.

After India lost three more wickets, they were 61 for 5 in the 17th over, but recovered somewhat, adding 30 runs over 12 overs. At that point, Nigar turned back to Marufa, who removed Amanjot Kaur with a full delivery, although the batter wasn't happy with the contentious caught-behind decision. The next ball, though, there was no doubt: Marufa yorked Sneh Rana and sent her leg stump cartwheeling. The crowd at the Shere Bangla National Stadium erupted as Bangladesh closed in on a famous victory. In the space of seven overs India had gone from 91 for 5 to 113 all out, Bangladesh winning by 40 runs.

Defending 152 runs, Bangladesh couldn't afford to give India a good start. Marufa ensured that they got the early wicket when she had the dangerous Mandhana caught behind for 11. Wicketkeeper Nigar took a stunning catch, a real turning point in the game.

"She is one of the top bowlers in the world right now. The [Indian] batters were handling the spinners very well, so we wanted to break the momentum. That's one of the reasons we wanted to bowl Marufa [later in the innings]."
- Hashan Tillakaratne, Bangladesh coach

"Marufa is very talented, young and fresh, she makes my job easier. She doesn't think too much and just bowls according to plans."
- Nigar Sultana, Bangladesh captain

Nadine de Klerk
4 for 32 vs Pakistan, second ODI, Karachi
De Klerk reduced Pakistan to 20 for 3 in her first two overs, getting Muneeba Ali and Sadaf Shamas caught off successive balls in the eighth over. The first ball of de Klerk's next over, a yorker, found its way through Sidra Ameen's defences to rattle the stumps; and she returned in the 44th over to send Umm-e-Hani back. It was de Klerk's maiden four-wicket haul in ODIs.
