U19 WC: Nigeria, USA Women Record Historic Wins; Australia Edge Bangladesh In Nail-biting Thriller
Mst Sumaiya Akther Suborna: Day three of the 2025 ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup saw Nigeria and USA claim their first-ever victories in their history of playing the tournament, while Australia edged Bangladesh in a nail-biting thriller to get their second win of the competition.
The biggest story of day three’s action so far belonged to Nigeria, who beat New Zealand by two runs in Sarawak, to record their first win in their first-ever appearance at a global tournament in women's cricket.
In a reduced 13-over match, captain Lucky Piety led the charge by hitting Nigeria’s first World Cup six, but New Zealand hit back, applying the squeeze and claiming two wickets to see Nigeria slip to 28/3 after the powerplay.
