West Indies beat Tigers in 1st ODI

Bangladesh suffered a heavy defeat to host West Indies in the 1st ODI at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium on Tuesday, report agencies.
West Indies beat Bangladesh by 201 runs.
Earlier, West Indies are three wickets away from clinching the Antigua Test against Bangladesh. The visitors ended the fourth day on 109 for 7 after they were set a target of 334.
Kemar Roach and Jayden Seales led the way for the hosts with three wickets each, as Bangladesh's specialist batters failed to put together a performance for the umpteenth time this year.
On Monday, Bangladesh began the day with an unusual decision to declare their first innings at 269 for 9, leaving a deficit of 181 runs.
This aggressive approach aimed to create opportunities for their bowlers, a gamble that seemed to work momentarily as Taskin Ahmed delivered a career-best 6 for 64 to bowl West Indies out for 152.
However, the inspired bowling effort was undone by Bangladesh's fragile batting under relentless pressure from the West Indies attack.
Roach struck early in Bangladesh's chase, removing Zakir Hasan for a duck and later claiming Mominul Haque with a sharp return catch.
