WI vs BAN Dream11 Prediction [Source: @ICC/x]

West Indies and Bangladesh cricket teams will be crossing paths in the first T20I of their three-match series on December 15 at the Arnos Vale Ground in St Vincent. While hosts West Indies won the preceding ODI series by a 3-0 margin, Bangladesh managed to level the two-match Test rubber last month by winning the decider.

Ahead of this game, here is a look at the Dream11 predictions, the fantasy cricket tips, the pitch report and the best predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match.

WI vs BAN 1st T20I Preview

West Indies lost its five-match T20I series to England last month at home. Rovman Powell and co. also lost their three-match rubber in Sri Lanka back in October despite taking an early lead in the series. In a bid to resurrect their dwindling T20I form, it is imperative for the West Indies team to find some positive momentum in the format against the visiting Bangladeshis. Captain Powell, alongside Brandon King will start out as some of the primary in-form batters for the hosts. Romario Shepherd and spinner Akeal Hosein, on the other hand, have taken the most wickets among all West Indies bowlers in T20Is off late.

The Bangladesh cricket team is currently on a six-match losing streak in T20Is. After losing three Group 1 fixtures in succession at the 2024 T20 World Cup, they also lost their three-match series in India by a 0-3 margin a couple of months ago. Moreover, the Bangladesh team has not defeated West Indies in T20Is since December 2018, i.e., nearly six years ago. In a bid to snap their unwanted losing streak, captain Litton Das and fellow in-form batter Tanzid Hasan need to rack up some match-winning runs for their country. Rishad Hossain and Tanzim Hasan Sakib will also be expected to deliver timely breakthroughs with the ball for the visitors.
