**Official** Bangladesh in West Indies

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

As far as the zim vs WI series went, WI arent a very good away team, but at home they are decent and i think their squad looks a lot better now(no hinds and ganga).

AFAIC WI earned those victories in Zimbabwe. It may not have been easy, but we fought through.

I could argue that too.

I meant Wavell Hinds against Devon Smith.

If WI bats first, i predict that 240 should be good enough. I think that WI should be able to chase anything that Ban sets.

Lol. Well I could argue that too. I've seen Devon Smith score at an amazing rate before. I've also seen Wavell Hinds struggle to get the ball away many times.

I wouldn't count on 240 being enough. I'd prefer to go all out for around 300+.

 

[Revelation]

i know that 300+ should be the target, but i;m saying that 240 SHOULD be enough to clinch the game. 136 last wednesday was almost enough against a third or fourth rated team.

I'd say it was better than a third or fourth XI. Lawson and Collins are not exactly bad.

[Revelation]

i know but Lawson hasn't had a game for a while and collins is also returning from a long break. not exactly on top of things.

 

[Neil Pickup]

It's as good as a West Indies A side for mine - 6 full experience, 2 in the squad, 2 U19s.

Lawson and Collins haven't been playing international cricket for a while but both have been playing cricket at the club level.

What is the wicket usually like?

 

[Revelation]

The wicket is usually very good. There have been 3 scores over 250, and on those occasions, the team went on to score over 290. The groud has hosted fewer than 20 ODI's.

 

[Adamc]

Bangladesh 2/0. That's 2 wickets, 0 runs.

 

[Rich2001]

Make that 5 runs and 3 wickets now

 

[tooextracool]

well this is a sad week of cricket really

 

[Loony BoB]

I gotta say, it does make me smile when I see a Bangladeshi #10 slogging a six against the Windies. Nothing against the Windies... more so just cherishing the moment for Bangladesh.

 

[Revelation]

WI chasing 145 to win are 52/2 after 16 ov.

Doesn't seem a great pitch. Unfortunately someone's watching rugby in the TV room

 

[chicane]

Wow! They got to 145 from 70 odd for 8. Excellent recovery for Bangladesh.
