In a display of sheer dominance, India's women's cricket team thrashed Bangladesh by 10 wickets to secure a spot in their ninth Women's Asia Cup final. Pacer Renuka Singh's remarkable three-wicket burst and Smriti Mandhana's brisk unbeaten fifty were the highlights of a ruthless performance by the defending champions.

Renuka's fiery spell at the start of the innings and support from left-arm spinner Radha Yadav restricted Bangladesh to a meager 80 for eight. Mandhana and Shafali Verma effortlessly chased down the target, ending at 83 for no loss in just 11 overs, full of powerful and precise shots.

The fielding unit, especially Shafali, also played a crucial part in India's comprehensive win. India's next challenge will come in the form of either Pakistan or Sri Lanka in the final showdown of the tournament on Sunday.
