Bangladesh national women's cricket team is currently competing in the ICC Cricket World Cup in New Zealand. Bangladesh have a slim chance of putting up a fight against the traditional cricketing heavyweights. They have already suffered big defeats to South Africa and New Zealand in their first two games. However, individually, talented female cricketer Rumana Ahmed can achieve two milestones in the upcoming matches. Let's see what milestones Rumana could be able to attain during the tournament. Expected WODI Milestones for Rumana Ahmed Rumana Ahmed's unwavering consistency has pushed her to greater heights in Bangladesh women’s cricket. She is also one of Bangladesh's best-known female cricketers on the international stage. Let's take a look at the two major milestones that Rumana is approaching. 1,000 WODI Runs Rumana Ahmed made her international debut against the Ireland Women's team in 2011. She has appeared in 44 Women's One-Day Internationals for Bangladesh since then. Rumana has scored 915 runs in 41 innings, averaging 25.41. She just needs 85 runs to reach 1,000 WODI runs for the Tigress. With five more matches to play for Bangladesh in the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup, Rumana has a genuine chance to achieve that feat. This right-handed batter is now Bangladesh's highest run-scorer for the women's team.
