West Indies vs Bangladesh, 2nd T20I at Kingstown, WI vs BAN, Dec 17 2024 - Ball by Ball Commentary
We appreciate everyone's presence today; we have always enjoyed your company. Take care and enjoy the cricket series that is taking place all around the world. On behalf of Binoy and myself, I'm signing out.
Player of the Match: Shamim Hossain
Taqib Chowdhury: "Amazing series win for Bangladesh, considering how strong West Indies is in T20s, no matter what is the condition or pitch. Great gift to the Country and its People in the month of Victory! "
After losing the ODI series 3-0, the Bangladeshi squad has made a remarkable comeback. With one game remaining, they have already won the T20I series. The visitors have controlled the game with both spin and pace bowling throughout the second innings. The pitch and outfield slowed down after rainy spells, and the host team seemed clueless about how to handle the Bangladeshi bowlers. Similar to the inaugural Twenty20 International, the West Indies squad only had three batsmen score ten or more runs. Despite the efforts of Roston Chase and Akeal Hosein, the host team was unable to reach the target. Taskin led the bowling lineup with three wickets, although all of the bowlers bowled superbly. Hasan took one wicket, while Tanzim, Rishad, and Mahedi each took two.
Bangladesh won by 27 runs and seal the series 2-0
Sathyen: "Nicholas Pooran for all the talent he has, has been really disappointing in recent times. He used to play at least 50 overs cricket for West Indies but this year hasn't played in a single ODI and only plays in T20Is. This pick and choose approach to international cricket is not going to serve hiim or the West Indies any good in the long run. "
