WI vs BAN: The Men from the Caribbean will lock horns against Bangladesh for their upcoming Super 12 encounter of the T20 World Cup.
West Indies played their previous match against South Africa and the results weren’t what they quite expected. Being asked to bat first, West Indies managed to scramble through to a subpar total of 143/8, courtesy of Evin Lewis’ 35-ball 56. Dwaine Pretorius was the pick of the bowlers with 3/17. In reply, Aiden Markam’s unbeaten 26-ball 51 ensured a comfortable 8 wicket win for the Proteas.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh played England in their previous encounter. Batting first proved to be an upsetting decision, as the English bowlers were all over Bangladesh. Tymal Mills picked up three, while Livingstone & Moeen picked up two each. Chasing a small target of 125, Jason Roy smashed a brilliant 30-ball 61 to hand England a comfortable win.
In the upcoming encounter, the West Indies will have a clear dominance and a chance to win the match against Bangladesh.
