5.24pm So Bangladesh need to chase down 157, the highest total of the series. At one point when Harmanpreet and Hemalatha were batting it looked like India would get a lot more before those two set betters fell on consecutive balls and Sajeevan Sajana lasted just three balls. But Richa Ghosh eventually muscled the ball and took India past 150. Nahida Akter and Rabeya Khan were easily the pick of the bowlers for their big breakthroughs and also for the economical bowling. We'll be back with the chase soon...

Hemalatha: I'm really happy to be part of the Indian team again, it's amazing. I've been working a lot in domestic cricket and behind the scenes. I'm not thinking that far ahead (to the T20 World Cup), I'm just working in the present. The WPL was very useful because I played at the top of the order and before that I'd been playing for Railways too.
