BAN vs WI: Bangladesh dominated the first ODI and won it by 74 runs. Now the series moves on to the second game, which will be played on Tuesday with a 1 PM IST start at the Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka. Bangladesh will win the series if they win this game. Here are the fantasy cricket tips and other details about this game.
Bangladesh Preview
Bangladesh had some struggle with the bat, but they managed to reach a fighting total, which proved to be a winning one. Now, they will be eyeing a series win. They just need to bat a little more sensibly, and they have good bowlers to cover it up.
- Key Batters: Towhid Hridoy and Najmul Hossain Shanto played well and will be the ones to watch out for.
- Captaincy: Captain Mehidy Hasan Miraz is an asset at this kind of pitch. He scores runs and also takes wickets every time he plays.
- Batting Strength: The openers are not scoring for Bangladesh, but they have a good middle order to back it up. They have players who know how the pitch will behave, and playing on these kinds of tracks has helped them more.
- Bowling Attack: The bowling is always good for Bangladesh. They have wicket-taking pacers up front with the new ball. Then, the spin combo of Rishad and Mehidy is always in the game with the wickets.
West Indies Preview
West Indies have been guilty of not competing at the highest level. If they bowl well, they will fail with the bat, which is the other way around as well. They have to find a way to extract performance with bat and ball combined to win games.
- Batting: West Indies had a great start with the bat, but then they lost the plot. The pitch is very tough, but senior players need to take more responsibility. If they lose their wicket for nothing balls, it won’t help the team.
- Bowling: The bowling did an amazing job for the visitors. They restricted them to near 200, which was chasable. Fast bowlers did their job, and spinners controlled the game in the middle.
