Bangladesh will be up against the West Indies in a three-match T20I series, following the conclusion of a hard-fought ODI series, with the hosts eventually walking away with the honours. The focus now shifts to the T20Is, where surprisingly, Bangladesh are on a four-series winning streak and the West Indies have won just one series out of their last eight, the one against Ireland this year, which had two games washed out due to rain.
The West Indies took Nepal lightly and had to pay the price. The injuries aren't helping the Windies but the return of the likes of Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, Brandon King and regular skipper Shai Hope will keep the visitors in good stead, while Bangladesh too have their regular captain Litton Das returning after an injury he sustained during the Asia Cup. After slow and low surfaces in Mirpur, the batters of both the teams will enjoy a bit of batting help in Chattogram and might be an exciting series.
