The Bangladesh national women’s kabaddi team concluded their Nepal tour with a hard-fought 28-23 victory in the fifth and final Test match at Kathmandu’s Satdobato Taekwondo Hall on Friday.

Despite Nepal having already secured the series 3-1 with their win on Thursday, Bangladesh showed remarkable resilience in the dead rubber. The hosts dominated early proceedings, taking a 14-7 halftime lead and extending it to 16-9 after the break. However, the visitors mounted a stunning second-half comeback to claim the consolation win by a five-point margin.
