Bangladesh To Win, 2.05
Bangladesh has won seven of the last eight T20Is at this venue
The home team has better spin-bowling all-rounders on a pitch that suits spin bowling
WI has more power-hitters but they may find it tough to get going on the slow Bangladeshi surfaces
BAN vs WI Betting Tips
The first dismissal of the match to be caught
With conditions being low and slow for the spinners and West Indian batters who will go hard at the ball, you would do well to back this bet. The spinners will create catching opportunities early in the innings. The West Indies took six of its ten wickets in its previous T20I through caught dismissals.
Bangladesh not to lose a wicket in the first over
Bangladesh is likely to think in the long term when seeing out the first over without the loss of a wicket. That tactic worked in the side’s previous T20I when they didn’t lose a wicket in the opening over and managed to accelerate as the innings progressed. This feels like a low-risk bet.

West Indies
If the ODI series is anything to go by, Bangladesh will be up for the shortest format. The Caribbean team’s batting woes have been plaguing them on tour. Those issues could be exploited again by a Bangladesh bowling group that knows its way around the subcontinental pitches.

BAN vs WI Team Previews
Bangladesh
The dynamic opening pair of Parvez Hossain Emon and Tanzid Hasan will rip the powerplay apart, to provide early momentum. Litton Das is one of the most experienced players in this side. His skillset of reading situations accordingly will be highly valued.
The lower-order is packed with finishers, who also double up as quality all-rounders. Shamim Hossain, Jaker Ali and Rishad Hossain should add the final touches to a superb effort ahead of them. Ali’s 72 not out and Rishad Hossain’s three wickets helped with a crushing effort in the last T20I against the West Indies.
The bowling attack is balanced and potent. West Indies was bowled out for 109 in the previous T20 match against Bangladesh. Shoriful Islam and Tanzim Hasan Sakib provide pace and movement in the powerplay. They shouldn’t struggle to get early breakthroughs. Mustafizur Rahman is one of the best weapons in the world for closing out innings.
The real talking point of this lineup is the spin duo of Nasum Ahmed and Rishad Hossain, offering finger and wrist spin. Nasum Ahmed’s five wickets earned him the player-of-the-series in an overwhelming three-nil dismantling of Afghanistan recently.
With Litton Das steering the side, Bangladesh looks well-prepared to play fearless, modern T20 cricket. If the openers fire and the bowlers execute their plans, this team has the potential to seriously take apart the Caribbean team.
Bangladesh Expected Playing 11
Parvez Hossain Emon, Tanzid Hasan, Saif Hassan, Jaker Ali (wk), Shamim Hossain, Litton Das (c), Rishad Hossain, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Nasum Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman

West Indies
The West Indies has a number of factors going against it for this match. The newer faces will have to juggle adjusting to international cricket while also getting to grips with the subcontinent. The team will be heavily reliant on Shai Hope to come good, but his strike rate in T20s has been a persistent problem.
Sherfane Rutherford and Rovman Powell are power-hitters without the ability to gear down, if needed. The batting is iffy. Even an associate nation like Nepal strangled the West Indies for scores of 129 for nine and 83 all out in its recent series.
While the team will boast a number of all-rounders, their effectiveness with either bat or ball will be questioned. Both Holder and Chase are experienced options, but neither is likely to set the game alight. Chase managed three single-figure scores in a row in the ODI series.
Akeal Hosein is one of the more reliable spinners in the side. If the Bangladeshi batters can rotate strike off him, the bowlers around him will present scoring opportunities. Romario Shepherd has produced the occasional blinder, but a real game-changing performance will be off the radar for now.
His T20I economy rate is over ten runs per over. Ramon Simmonds could struggle for control and consistency as the least experienced bowler in the lineup.
While the West Indies could have their moments, the team is not settled with numerous players with only a handful of international caps, and that could be their Achilles’ heel.
West Indies Expected Playing 11
Amir Jangoo (wk), Ackeem Auguste, Shai Hope (c), Sherfane Rutherford, Rovman Powell, Jason Holder, Roston Chase, Akeal Hosein, Romario Shepherd, Gudakesh Motie, Ramon Simmonds
BAN vs WI Toss Prediction
Four of the past five T20I matches between the sides have gone the way of the side batting first. You can expect both captains to want to get going with bat in hand to start.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
Spin will be king on this pitch because of the high likelihood of grip and turn. The batters will need to play the spinners smartly to rotate strike in between strikes to the boundary. Bangladesh made 165 for five in the previous T20I at this venue. That may be a good example of a par score.
The chance of rain sits at 20 percent during the afternoon. Besides that, temperatures will be high with extreme humidity.
BAN vs WI: Who Will Win?
Bangladesh’s spin attack is perfectly suited to Chattogram conditions. Their batting lineup has greater stability than the West Indies. The strong momentum from the ODI series win will be something else that is playing on the minds of the away team.
Bet on Bangladesh to win.
BAN vs WI win percentage stands at 58% in favor of WI.
