Match Details 

West Indies vs Bangladesh Preview 

The first ODI saw the thrilling performance by Sherfane Rutherford, who got his maiden ODI hundred (113 off 80 balls) that helped West Indies break an 11-match losing streak against Bangladesh. Chasing a competitive target of 295, Rutherford, supported by skipper Shai Hope, steered his team to a five-wicket win with 14 balls to spare.

Bangladesh failed to capitalize on their strong batting performance. Tanzid Hasan and Mehidy Hasan Miraz helped them build a strong platform, but the pressure they created in the early overs could not be converted into success by their bowling unit.

This is a do-or-die match for both teams. West Indies are looking to seal the series, while Bangladesh needs to come back to stay in the competition. The track at Warner Park is going to offer an interesting balance between bat and ball, which promises to be another nail-biting contest.

Warner Park Pitch Report 

The surface at Warner Park in Basseterre St Kitts generally offers a balanced contest between bat and ball. Though there will be marginal seam movement, the wicket might be a bit tricky for stroke players, especially when the old ball comes into play.

So, the batsmen have to spend some time in the middle and try to get accustomed to the conditions. Once they get used to the pace and bounce of the track, they can capitalize on the poor deliveries, especially if the ball is either too full or short. The pacers have to hit the hard length and bowl more cutters and slow balls than the seam-ups to succeed at this venue.

West Indies vs Bangladesh Match Prediction 

West Indies have the momentum in this game, having had a dominant show in the first ODI. The batting lineup includes explosive players like Sherfane Rutherford and Brandon King, who have been able to chase big totals under pressure. Shai Hope’s calm leadership and consistency provide stability, while the bowling unit, led by Alzarri Joseph, can exploit conditions.

However, Bangladesh can bounce back, but the bowling will have to get right. While Litton Das and Mehidy Hasan Miraz bring experience, the team lacks firepower in the middle order and death overs. The bowlers will have to get better to keep the West Indies’ aggressive batsmen at bay, especially on a pitch that has slightly favored spinners and tactical pacers.

West Indies are favorites to win this match and thus take the series, given their recent form, depth, and home advantage.
