India and Bangladesh shared points after the Women's World Cup match between the two sides was abandoned because of rain, here on Sunday.

Chasing a revised target of 126 in a 27-over-a-side game, India were cruising along nicely at 57 without loss in 8.4 overs when another spell of shower forced the umpires to call off the contest.
