Navi Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 26 (ANI): Rain delayed the start of Bangladesh's innings in the ongoing ICC Women's Cricket World Cup clash against India at the DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai on Sunday.

Earlier, rain had pushed back the toss before India elected to bowl. India captain Harmanpreet Kaur won the toss and opted to field against Bangladesh. Since morning, the rain had arrived in patches and returned before the toss. The covers were placed, forcing the toss to be delayed by more than 30 minutes.

India hosts Bangladesh, with Harmanpreet Kaur's side hoping to enter the knockout stages in winning form.

India will take on Australia in the second semi-final in Navi Mumbai on Thursday, and is sure to want to enter that match having won two games on the trot.
