At Basseterre, St Kitts, July 31, 2009. Bangladesh won by three wickets. Toss: West Indies. One-day
international debut: K. O. A. Powell.
For a change, West Indies were set back by two of Bangladesh's quicker bowlers, each in his first
international of the tour. Mahbubul Alam's first ball was a wide, his second removed 19-year-old
debutant left-hander Kieran Powell; at the other end, Nazmul Hossain bowled Smith with his seventh
delivery. Fletcher responded with three sixes in 52 off 42 balls, but he was not the only West Indian
seduced by the short boundaries and caught in the deep. Reifer spent 79 balls over 40, his only decent
score of the series, and Sammy supplied late momentum with 40 off 33. Tamim Iqbal punched five
fours in Roach's first two overs but, once he drove Sammy to mid-on, the balance swung back
towards West Indies. It was even at 133 for five, when Roach bowled Junaid Siddique leg stump in
the 28th over, but shifted moments later when he had Mahmudullah dropped at slip. Mahmudullah
proceeded to an unbeaten 51, guiding Bangladesh to a series sweep with seven balls remaining.
Man of the Match: Mahmudullah. Man of the Series: Shakib Al Hasan.
