BAN vs WI Team Previews

Bangladesh

The top order, with Saif Hassan and Soumya Sarkar as the openers, is growing to this level with a few starts here and there. Sarkar almost made a half-century in his previous ODI innings. They will be eager to get bigger results.

In the middle, Towhid Hridoy and Najmul Hossain Shanto bring composure and the ability to build innings, while Mahidul Islam Ankon adds flexibility as a developing talent. Their local knowledge should not be underestimated.

Bangladesh’s spinners, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Nasum Ahmed, Tanvir Islam and Rishad Hossain, thrive in Mirpur conditions. With the bat as well, Rishad Hossain pumped 39 runs not out off only 14 balls in the previous ODI. Mustafizur Rahman remains the pace spearhead. His variations and calmness under pressure make him a key figure, especially in crunch moments.

The bowling group restricted its opponents to only 213 for nine in the last ODI. All the bowlers played their part, chipping in with wickets and five of the six bowlers ended with economies under five runs per over.

This Bangladesh side looks well-rounded and competitive, with plenty of firepower to challenge its opponents. If the batting unit lays a solid platform and the spinners find rhythm, they have every chance of wrapping up this series.

The biggest batting concern with this group is becoming too reliant on Shai Hope to get the job done. Players like Keacy Carty and Ackeem Auguste are still finding their feet at this level. Against Bangladesh’s spin quartet, their lack of subcontinental experience could be brutally exposed.

Brandon King and Sherfane Rutherford can be destructive, but they often struggle for consistency in a format that demands a mix of tempos. King had an early shower in his last innings with a first-ball duck. On slow pitches, their natural attacking instincts may backfire.

West Indies’ batting collapse to 133 all out in the first ODI highlights how quickly they can unravel once spin pressure builds. The batting also tends to go nowhere slowly, with only one of the top six batters managing a strike rate in the 70s in the previous match.

A spin-bowling unit of Gudakesh Motie, Roston Chase, Akeal Hosein and Khary Pierre is nothing special in 50-over cricket. They can be used as bowlers who can contain runs, but they will lack the bite to pick up wickets consistently. Chase and Pierre were prime examples after 20 wicketless overs between them in the previous match.

This West Indies side is in transition, with several promising names but not enough proven match-winners in Asian conditions. Unless Hope produces a captain’s knock of substance and their spinners suddenly outbowl Bangladesh’s, the Tigers’ superior understanding of conditions should see them prevail again.

BAN vs WI Toss Prediction

Bangladesh won the toss and chose to bat first in the previous ODI. The team also batted first in the opening ODI. Both captains may insist on batting first.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

In ODIs at the Shere Bangla National Stadium, the pitch is typically slow and low. The seamers can find some movement early on with the new ball, but then it’s over to the spinners. Batting is usually easier in the first innings because chasing becomes tricky with the grip and turn as the pitch wears on. West Indies was bowled out for 133 in the first ODI.

The weather is expected to be warm and humid. The forecast indicates partly cloudy skies with the chance of rain only at one percent. Humidity levels will be high.

BAN vs WI: Who Will Win?

Bangladesh should beat the West Indies in this ODI because their spinners are well-suited to slowing down the Caribbean batting on a used surface. If the Bangladesh batting also fully clicks, there will be no way back for the visitors. The home side has plenty of batters who can rotate strike under pressure.

Bet on Bangladesh to win.

Pro Tip: Teams have struggled to hit boundaries and sixes have been particularly hard to come by. Bet 'Under' the Total Sixes for the match in this one.
