In the Women's T20 World Cup match at Old Trafford, India dropped four catches within the first five overs against Bangladesh, marking a record in women's T20I history. Key fielders including Yastika Bhatia, Radha Yadav, and Nandini Sharma missed straightforward chances, allowing Bangladesh's Juairiya Ferdous multiple reprieves. Despite some bowling successes, India conceded 136 for eight and now face must-win matches against Bangladesh and Australia to advance.
