India, June 14 -- The Bangladesh women's cricket team will face tournament debutants, the Netherlands women's national cricket team, on Sunday, June 14, 2026, at Edgbaston Stadium, Birmingham. The Group A match will also be the official curtain-raiser for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026 for both teams. Veteran wicket-keeper batter Nigar Sultana's side, the Tigresses, will aim to take an early lead in Group A by strangulating the Dutch batters with their renowned spin strategy at the English venue. The Netherlands outfit, led by young Babette de Leede, is also keen to pull off a massive upset in their historic maiden global T20 mega tournament.
