1st Test
Tuesday, July 4, 14:00 GMT, 10:00 local
That This promises to be an extremely competitive series, with the Windies hosting Bangladesh for two test matches with the first start at North Sound on Wednesday, July 4th.
The local team has a good performance against Sri Lanka. They lost the third of three tests in the series to be 1-1, but performed well for the most part.
They start the series at No. 9 in the rankings of the ICC MRF Tires test team, just behind their opponents, but a 2-0 series win will take them over Bangladesh in eighth position , and that's on their radar.
As Courtney Browne, the head coach, pointed out after the Sri Lanka series, "We congratulate the team on a comic series but recognize that victory was within our reach". They hope to take the next step against Bangladesh.
There were three players in the main who drove the fortunes against Sri Lanka.
Shane Dowrich, the first wicket keeper, was the batting star, totaling 288 points in six innings with a century and two half-centuries. His 125 * in the first Test was the main reason for the victory of his team.
Jason Holder, the captain, once again demonstrated his total potential with 198 points – including a best of 74 at the last test – and 12 wickets, nine of them came in the same test as this half. century.
And Shannon Gabriel, the paceman, crossed the Sri Lankan bat in the second test for 5/59 and 8/62 returns. In all, he took 20 wickets in the series.
Although the team did not always play as a unit, the three stars received good support from Kieran Powell, Roston Chase, Kraig Brwathwaite, Shai Hope and others. from Devon Smith. However, as Browne said, breeders expect to "make greater effort on the part of the top five hitters and to see them return to the goal and discipline, we know that They are able ". in the next round against Bangladesh. "If that happens, the Windies will be well placed.
Bangladesh, meanwhile, has not played a lot of test cricket lately. made earlier this year, against Sri Lanka at home, they lost 1-0.
Mominul Haque, drummer # 3, did his best with the bat, scoring two centuries on 314 points in four sleeves, but in four runs, there were only four other half-centuries, the seniors Tamim Iqbal and Mushfiqur Rahim scoring one each, and Taijul Islam was the only one to regularly pick up wickets – 12 in total – with the rest of the bowlers not showing too much penetration
The return of Shakib Al Hasan, as captain, should help the team.Shakib is one of the best players in all the time and, although it's not particularly effective lately, it can add much a lot to the team in both departments.
Important fact for Shakib and his teammates play one-day round against the XI side of Cricket West Indies' president. Iqbal (125) and Mahmudullah (102) struck for centuries, while Abu Jayed and Shafiul Islam took two wickets each. Shakib also reported a return to the decent form with a number of laps of 67.
If both teams give the best of themselves, this one should be fun, the positions on the rankings table being more motivating.
Key Players
Jason Holder (Windies): Every time Captain Windies shows why he was so well regarded when he started. As in this last test against Sri Lanka, where he had one of the most memorable outings in recent times. In any case, if he's able to hit that nagging line out of his big size, he can trouble the endless drummers.
Tamim Iqbal (Bangladesh): Bangladesh's best drummer -and-down time late, but hit some good leads in the warm-up match. He's better than his average of 38.68 from 54 tests suggests, and will be eager to make the most of the opportunities he's getting, starting with the Caribbean tour.
