Tigers want to seal series against West Indies today

December 11, 2018 00:00:00


After winning the first game of the three-match One Day International (ODI) series against West Indies in Dhaka, Bangladesh have now given their all attention to sealing the series when they meet the Caribbeans in the second ODI at the home of Bangladesh Cricket -- Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in the city today (Tuesday), reports UNB.

The match will kick off at 1:00 pm which will be telecast live by GTV.

Bangladesh almost played a perfect match according to their plan in the series opener on Sunday to beat the tourists by five wickets.

This win brought Bangladesh to a position to seal the series in the second match in Dhaka before the last ODI scheduled for December 14 at Sylhet International Stadium in Sylhet.

Visiting West Indies were whitewashed in the two-match Test series prior to the ODI series. So, it was expected that they would play explosive cricket in the one-dayers, but they were clueless to provide any moment to cheer for their fans while failing to face Bangladeshi pace bowlers.

Squads: Bangladesh (probable): 1 Tamim Iqbal, 2 Liton Das, 3 Imrul Kayes, 4 Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), 5 Shakib Al Hasan, 6 Soumya Sarkar, 7 Mahmudullah, 8 Mehidy Hasan, 9 Mashrafe Mortaza (capt), 10 Rubel Hossain, 11 Mustafizur Rahman

West Indies (probable): 1 Kieran Powell, 2 Shai Hope (wk), 3 Darren Bravo, 4 Marlon Samuels, 5 Shimron Hetmyer, 6 Roston Chase, 7 Rovman Powell (capt), 8 Keemo Paul, 9 Devendra Bishoo, 10 Kemar Roach, 11 Oshane Thomas
