WI vs BAN 2nd T20I Preview
The West Indies cricket team has lost its past two T20I series to England (at home) and Sri Lanka (away). After a disappointing 2024 T20 World Cup campaign at home where they failed to make it to the semifinals, the men from the Caribbean will be aiming to close out the year with an eye on T20 improvements. Rovman Powell’s troops started off poorly against Bangladesh in the series-opener, as they failed to overcome the visitors in a clutch final-over thriller. In a bid to stay alive in the series, it is imperative for the hosts to find a way to upstage Bangladesh in the impending second T20I.
The Bangladesh cricket team snapped its six-match losing streak in T20Is with an emphatic win over hosts West Indies in the first match of the series. After Soumya Sarkar, Jaker Ali and Shamim Hossain set up a competitive 147-run total for Bangladesh, right-arm spinner Mahedi Hasan and fast bowlers Taskin Ahmed and Hasan Mahmud managed to survive Rovman Powell’s onslaught to walk away with a seven-run win. Another win at this stage of the tour will hand Bangladesh a rare T20I series in the Caribbean.
