West Indies steamrolled Bangaladesh in the 2nd Test as the Brathwaite-led side won by ten wickets after bowling Bangladesh out for 186 in the 2nd innings and clinched the 2-match test series 2-0 at the Daren Sammy Stadium. 

A wet field washed out the first two sessions on Monday, but when Bangladesh resumed on 132-6, needing 42 more runs to make West Indies bat again, play lasted less than 12 overs.

Bangladesh's second innings extended nine more overs and 54 more runs before it was all over on 186. Nurul Hasan was stranded on 60 not out from 50 balls.

Needing 13 runs to win, West Indies openers John Campbell and captain Kraigg Brathwaite took just 17 balls to churn up a result.  Bangladesh's 100th Test loss came after it scored 234 and 186 and West Indies 408 and 13 not out.

When the day's play got underway, Mehidy Hasan Miraz got off with a mark with a boundary then was out next ball trying to block an Alzarri Joseph bouncer and edging behind.

Jayden Seales bagged in the one over Ebadot Hossain and Shoriful Islam for ducks.

Seales, Joseph and Kemar Roach each took three wickets. Khaled Ahmed was run out for a duck from the non-striker's end when Nurul wasn't looking for a run.

Nurul resumed from 16 overnight and blasted two sixes and five boundaries for his third Test fifty — all against West Indies — and four runs short of his career-best.

Well, Bangladesh can still stage a comeback as the tour isn't over for them. They are set to play three T20s, and as many ODI's in the upcoming days. They are also expected to pose a much stronger challenge in the white-ball leg of the tour.
