North Soun – West Indies and Bangladesh begin a test of two
Wednesday series with hosts should continue the trend of more ecological,
bouncier pitches and a rhythm attack seeking to put the visitors on the back foot
from the beginning.
After falling below Bangladeshis in the Test rankings
at number nine, there is extra motivation for the Jason Holder team to win
the series that starts in Antigua and goes back to number eight at the
spending of their Asian opponents.
With the second test to follow at Sabina Park in Jamaica
a week later, tourists would have carefully noted the quality of the game
surfaces for the series of three essays that has just completed against Sri Lanka,
finished on a bow-friendly pitch at Kensington Oval in Barbados.
Sri Lankans fought to achieve production leveling

and the first time that a team from Asia had already won a test match at this
famous place.

The West Indies should be unleashed on both matches.
Shannon Gabriel, who dominated all bowlers in Sri Lanka

Rubel Hossain will challenge what turned out to be a very vulnerable Caribbean
first-rate baton. It remains to be seen whether Abu Jayed uncapped is given the
opportunity to share the new ball in conditions that can actually be
encouraging for 24 years old.
There is no doubt that the bowling of the Bangladeshis
force at Sir Vivian Richards stage will rest in the spin department in the
the shape of the captain and the versatile athlete Shakib al Hasan the outgoing bowling player Mehidy Hasan
and Mahmudullah all-round turning.
Shakib and Mahmudullah are among the six players of the present
Bangladesh team with good memories of their first visit to this part of the
cricket world in 2009 when they dominated the Tests and One-Day
The internationals against a West Indies team severely exhausted by a confrontation
between the main actors and the regional administrators.
Their last visit to the Caribbean in 2014 was a
huge disappointment that the team led by Mushfiqur Rahim was not a match for a
side of the house full-strength.

varied attack Bangladesh who enters this series confident that they have
the quality to brake the drummers of the Caribbean.
