Bangladesh has won two consecutive wins against West Indies, leading to a seven-wicket victory in the second ODI in Dhaka on Friday, January 22 and moving up to third place in the ICC Cricket World Cup Super League stand .
Bangladesh is now 20 points with two wins in two games.
Once again, their attack proved too much for the inexperienced visitors of the West Indies, the visitors folded out for 148. The Bangladeshi fighters, led by captain Tamim Iqbal and Shakib Al Hasan all-round, then running down the total in just 33.2 over.
The West Indies chose bats, and their bats seemed to be more stable than they were in the first ODI. Opener Sunil Ambris was still ruled out within the first five pitches, Mustafizur Rahman being sent back for a 15-six ball, but Kjorn Ottley and Joshua Da Silva put on a retaliatory partnership of 26 far 50 delivery.
However, when the break came, more wikis quickly followed. Mehidy Hasan Miraz had knocked out both Ottley and Da Silva in the same spot, within four deliveries. Ottley hit at one, just to find the ranger, while Da Silva bowled when he failed to pick up Mehidy’s line.
Shakib Al Hasan, in his first outing, then bowled out to Andre McCarthy and when Kyle Mayers, the highest scorer in the West Indies in the first ODI, ran his -out for nine after that, the visitors looked like they were in hard canals at 41/5.
They did well after that to get to 148. Nkrumah Bonner and captain Jason Mohammed put forward 26 runs to regenerate the joints, and once the stance was broken – Shakib had captured Mohammed in front of him – Rovman Powell came into the middle.
Powell showed one head after that, advancing partnerships of 17 with Raymon Reifer (2), of 32 with Alzarri Joseph (17) and of 28 running with Akeal Hosein (12). Powell got a 41-ball 41 to regenerate the intestines, and give their mattresses something.
However, the problem was not entirely complete for the Bangladeshi fighters. Tamim, the captain, led from the front, scoring 76-ball 50 to lay the foundations of the chase, putting 30 forward with Liton Das for the opening wicket, and 47 with Najmul Hossain Shanto (17) for the second wicket.
Tamim and Shakib then scored 32 goals for the third wicket to repel him, and despite Tamim’s dismissal shortly after reaching his milestone, Shakib helped 43 * to seeing running through.
