The 2008–09 Bangladesh women's Tri-Nation series was a cricket tournament that was held from 6 to 17 February 2009 in Bangladesh.[1][2] It was a tri-nation series featuring Bangladesh women, Pakistan women and Sri Lanka women,[3] with the second, third and the final matches played as Women's One Day Internationals (WODIs).[4] As Bangladesh women had not received ODI status when the tournament was being held,[5] the matches involving Bangladesh women were not played with WODI status.[6]

The WODI fixtures were originally the part of Pakistan and Sri Lanka's preparation for the 2009 Women's Cricket World Cup.[7][8] Grameenphone, the country's leading mobile phone operator, earned the right to sponsor the women's tri-nation series.[9]

The hosts started their campaign disappointingly as they lost the inaugural match of the series by 7 wickets against Pakistan women.[10] Sri Lanka women were the first team to qualify for the final,[11] after they beat Pakistan women by 115 runs and won their three consecutive matches in the tournament.[12]

Bangladesh women won their only match of the tournament, on 13 February 2009 by 6 wickets, when they bowled out Sri Lanka women for just 67 runs, to keep the final hopes alive.[13][14] However, in the following match, Pakistan women restricted Bangladesh to 94 runs in the first innings, and beat the hosts by 9 wickets to reach the final.[15][16] Sri Lanka women won by 6 wickets in the final match against Pakistan, and was crowned as the champions of the tri-nation series.[17]
