The Bangladesh U-20 women's football squad spent Friday preparing for their upcoming match against Sri Lanka. Players engaged in fitness activities at their Dhaka hotel, combining gymnasium exercises with pool sessions and flexibility training. The team will face Sri Lanka on Saturday evening at Bashundhara Kings Arena-2 for the second meeting between these sides.
Team manager Mahmuda Akter confirmed all players remain healthy and available for selection. Squad rotation has allowed newer players to gain valuable experience throughout the tournament. Forward Nabiran Khatun recently captained the team for the first time when regular leader Afeida Khatun received rest against Bhutan.
Bangladesh maintains a perfect record with four consecutive victories in the double round-robin competition. The defending champions defeated Sri Lanka 9-1 in their first encounter and also recorded wins against Nepal and Bhutan. Another victory would virtually guarantee their title defense before the final fixture against Nepal on July 21.
