These odds can change quickly if West Indies find a partnership. The required runs aren't too many and one or two big partnerships can really be a threat to Bangladesh's cause. Once again Kraigg Brathwaite is playing with responsibility, he has made 22 runs out of the total 29 which West Indies have made. However, WI needs not to lose wickets as with early wicket loss, they not only get themselves in trouble but the target becomes more tough and impossible. Mikyle Louis has already lost his wicket to Taijul Islam. This is a critical phase of the match, a partnership of 50 or more without losing wickets and West Indies will be right back in the game.
In this match, Bangladesh performed quite unexpectedly. Especially their recovery started from the bowling in the first innings. And later they performed fairly standard batting performance in the second innings which helped them maintain the lead with the West Indies later on. And besides, Bangladesh's second innings bowling also performed well. But to be honest, I wasn't expecting this kind of performance considering their past performances, so I lost here unexpectedly.
The first innings performance of the Bangladeshi batsmen against the West Indies was not very good, they batted erratically and the Bangladesh team was bowled out for only 164 runs. However, in the first innings, the bowlers of Bangladesh bowled very well and did not allow West Indies to score too many runs in the first innings, they were all out for 146 runs. Nahid Rana bowled very well for Bangladesh against West Indies in the first innings. Nahid Rana bowled very well and single-handedly picked up five wickets from the West Indies batsmen. In the second innings, the batsmen of Bangladesh played more responsible batting. Due to their responsible batting, Bangladesh team gave a target of 268 runs to West Indies.  The West Indies batsmen were under a lot of pressure after losing two wickets to bat the target of 268 runs given by Bangladesh. From there, these two batsmen, Kavem Hodge and Kraigg Brathwaite, tried hard enough to win, but because no other batsman batted well, West Indies had to lose the match against Bangladesh.  Bangladesh got a huge win by 101 runs against West Indies Congratulations to the Bangladesh team.
