WI vs BAN Preview
- The first game of the T20I series between the West Indies and Bangladesh ended in a tie.
- Shakib Al Hasan and wicket-keeper Nurul Hasan both played well in the first T20I.
- Romario Shepherd and Hayden Walsh were outstanding for the West Indies in the first game of the T20I series.
The second of three T20I matches between the West Indies and Bangladesh begins on Sunday afternoon at Windsor Park in Dominica. This game comes just 24 hours after the first game of the series produced only 13 overs of play and ended in a tie. The game was initially reduced to 16 overs per side, but rain forced the game to be called off with Bangladesh 105-8 from 13 overs. The game starts at 13:30 local time.
When the game was finally called off on Saturday, the West Indies were far more disappointed than Bangladesh. They will believe they should be up 1-0 and will be tough opponents if they can channel their frustration.
Bangladesh’s batting was disappointing in the first T20I, with many of their players throwing their wickets away. We anticipate an improvement in this game, but it may not be enough to secure their first win of their Caribbean tour.
WI vs BAN Weather Report
Rain will once again threaten to disrupt the match. Expect plenty of cloud cover and temperatures in the upper 20s all day.
WI vs BAN Match Toss Prediction
Nicholas Pooran chose to field first on Saturday because of the humid conditions and the covered pitch. On Sunday, we predict that both captains will choose to field first in similar conditions.
WI vs BAN Pitch Report
In the first game, there was something in the wicket for all types of bowlers, and we expect batters to struggle with timing again in this match. A par score will not exceed 175.
West Indies Team News & Probable Playing XIs
With no bowler bowling more than three overs on Saturday and no batters getting a chance to face a ball, it would be a surprise if the West Indies side changed for this second IT20. Odean Smith was costly, but he should be given another chance in this match.

Bangladesh Team News & Probable Playing XIs
Although we did not get to see how the West Indies would perform with the bat in the same conditions, Bangladesh’s efforts with the bat appeared to be subpar on Saturday. Fans will be clamoring for lineup changes, but having batted once on the pitch, it makes sense to stick with the same XI in this game.

West Indies are the favourites to win this match.
Following the disappointment of the no-result on Saturday, we anticipate both teams to be desperate to put on a show for the Dominican fans in this game. We expect bowlers to dominate, but we expect a batter or two to stand up and be counted. Overall, we believe West Indies will win this match.
