It is not about losing or gaining the points, Bangladesh team would want to win this test to square the series 1-1. On the other hand West Indies would like to win it in order to win the series. Such wins have a positive effect on cricket nations that aren't so strong. We know that both of them would be able to compete for ICC world Champion ship but still they have to win the matches for themselves.
We only had a 30 over game possible yesterday and i think Bangladesh did good surviving those initial overs and lost only 2 wickets. Shadman Islam made a 50 and he will start fresh today. If Bangladesh can reach 250-300 runs, it will be a big achievement. Kemar Roach was the most successful bowler who took 2 wickets but i was impressed with Jayden Seales as he bowled 5 maidens in this 7 overs.
Bangladesh must win this match if they want to stay alive in this series. Bangladesh poor start today lost 2 back to bcak quick wickets of Hossain and liton das. Shamar Joseph bowl really well picked 3 important wicket today including the crucial wicket of Jaker Ali. Shadman Islam played amazing inning of 64 runs but Shamar Joseph get the main wickets of Shadman Islam before the lunch. West Indies outstanding performance in first session of day 2 picked 4 wickets before the lunch. Bangladesh current score is 122 runs in a loss of 6 wickets. I think its very different for Bangladesh to cross 200 runs in first inning of second test match against west indies.
The Bangladesh team is completely down. Other than Islam's 64 runs and Hossain's 22 runs, the scoring from the players was 3, 0, 1, and 1 run. The second session of the day has begun. The fall of a few wickets in the second session could restrict them within 200 runs. For the West Indies team, this is going to be an easy target. Earlier it looked like Bangladesh would end the innings before lunch as Bangladesh lost its 6
th wicket at 98 runs. Mehidy Hasan and Taijul Islam managed to stand wicket and avoid the worst situation. Let's see how far this pair can strengthen the team and build a partnership, which is very important in this critical situation.
