Bangladesh vs West Indies Match Preview

Bangladesh extended their dominance at home by clinching the ODI series and now shift focus to T20s, where their dynamic hitters and disciplined bowlers give them an edge on familiar pitches. Litton Das leads Bangladesh’s rejuvenated squad, with game-changers like Towhid Hridoy and Rishad Hossain in form. The West Indies, traditionally explosive in T20s, look to counter with firepower from Rovman Powell, Romario Shepherd, and Gudakesh Motie. However, recent struggles on subcontinent tracks and a heavy ODI defeat could test their resolve. Home advantage and momentum slot Bangladesh as slight favorites.

BAN vs WI Chattogram Pitch Report

The Bir Sreshtho Flight Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium offers a balanced pitch with something for both batters and bowlers. Historically, ODI matches here have leaned slightly towards teams batting first, but this T20I will be the ground’s first, introducing a note of uncertainty. Expect some early swing for seamers and grip for spinners, with par scores in the 145–160 range likely. Chasing may become trickier as the pitch slows, but both teams boast finishers capable of adapting.

Bangladesh vs West Indies Weather Report
