The Bangladesh women's kabaddi team suffered their second consecutive defeat against Nepal, losing 29-22 in the second match of the five-match Test series held today in Kathmandu, Nepal.

Despite the setback, Bangladesh showed signs of improvement compared to their opening match, where they were comprehensively beaten 41-18. This time, the women in red and green put up a stronger fight against the more experienced Nepalese side.

Nepal took control early in the match, ending the first half with a commanding 18-8 lead. Although Bangladesh managed to narrow the gap in the second half with a few successful raids, they were unable to recover the first-half deficit.

"In the first match, we played poorly in both defense and attack. But today, the team defended well, and I'm hopeful they will continue to improve in the remaining three matches," said Bangladesh coach Arduzzaman Munshi following the match.
