India women's cricket team in Bangladesh in 2023

The India women's cricket team toured Bangladesh in July 2023 to play three One Day International (ODI) and three Twenty20 International (T20I) matches. The ODI series formed part of the 2022–2025 ICC Women's Championship.

India won the T20I series 2–1. Bangladesh won the first match of the ODI series, which was their first win over India in the format. India defeated Bangladesh by 108 runs in the second ODI. The third and last ODI ended in a tie, leading to the series being drawn 1–1.

On 25 July 2023, Harmanpreet Kaur, the Indian captain, was fined 75% of her match fee, banned for two matches, and given four demerit points by the International Cricket Council (ICC) for breaching the code of conduct for her outbursts during the final ODI of the series. She pleaded guilty to two separate charges pressed by the match referee.

Kaur received three demerit points and fined 50% of her match fee for "showing dissent at an umpire's decision". Thus, she became the first women's player to be given a Level 2 sanction since the ICC began listing code of conduct breaches publicly in 2016. She also received one demerit point for a separate Level 1 penalty along with a fine of 25% of her match fee for "public criticism" of match officials. Kaur found herself in the controversy after hitting the stumps with her bat when she was given out. In the post-match presentation, she publicly criticised the umpires and disrespected the opponent team during the photo session, leading to the Bangladeshi players' walkout.

Bangladesh named Sharmin Akhter, Fargana Hoque, Lata Mondal and Fariha Trisna as standby players in their T20I squad.
