Bangladesh skipper Nigar Sultana Joty is enjoying the form of her life as yet another blistering 59-ball 83 from the wicketkeeper-batter helped her side to 276 for six -- the Tigresses' highest total in Women's ODI -- against Scotland in their third match of the ICC Women's World Cup Qualifier in Lahore on Tuesday.

A blistering 59-ball 83 from the wicketkeeper-batter, alongside fifties from Fargana Hoque and Sharmin Akhter, helped the Tigresses to a 34-run victory over Scotland.

Joty, who smashed her maiden ton in this format (101 off 80 balls) during Bangladesh's opening match in the tournament against Thailand, played a dogged 68-ball 51-run during the Tigresses' record run chase of 236 runs against Ireland in the second game. Her innings, alongside Ritu Moni's 67 off 61 deliveries, helped Bangladesh bounce back from a precarious position.

On Tuesday, Joty once again turned up with the bat in an all-important game against Scotland as she struck 11 fours and batted with a strike rate of 140.67 to push Bangladesh's total beyond the 270-run mark, surpassing their previous highest total of 271 for three against Thailand, scored just a match before.

It was the only time when Joty scored three successive 50-plus innings in her international career, and with her flamboyant innings against Scotland, the 27-year-old is currently leading the top batters' chart in the tournament with 235 runs at a staggering average of 117.50.

She also possesses the highest strike rate in the tournament among the batters who have at least scored 100 runs in the meet so far.

Joty's impressive batting form seemed to have had a positive impact on the side as Bangladesh are currently in the pole position to qualify for the main event, scheduled in India later this year. The Tigresses remain only the second side, alongside hosts Pakistan, to stay unbeaten in the tournament so far.
