Team News

West Indies

The hosts have been underwhelming, with key players like Nicholas Pooran and Brandon King failing to deliver. Powell has led from the front with a fiery 60 in the first match, but the rest of the batting lineup has crumbled under pressure.

The bowling unit, comprising Akeal Hosein and Obed McCoy, has shown glimpses of brilliance but lacked consistent support. West Indies may experiment with their bench strength in this inconsequential match.

Bangladesh

The visitors have dominated with both bat and ball, with Shamim Hossain and Mahedi Hasan being standout performers. Shamim's unbeaten 35 in the second T20I stabilized the innings.

Whereas, the bowling trio of Taskin Ahmed, Mahedi Hasan, and Rishad Hossain dismantled the West Indian batting. Skipper Litton Das hasn't fired yet, but the team will likely retain its winning combination.
