Bangladesh (BAN) will face West Indies (WI) in the second ODI of their three-match series on Tuesday, October 21, at the Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka.

Bangladesh won the opening match by 74 runs, powered by a remarkable six-wicket haul from Rishad Hossain, whose incisive bowling consistently troubled the visitors. Riding on that momentum, Bangladesh will aim to seal the series and lift the trophy.

West Indies, having lost the first ODI, will look to bounce back strongly. While their bowlers showed promise, lapses in the middle overs proved costly. They will aim to regroup and build on the positives to challenge Bangladesh in the second game.

The Shere Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka, has traditionally been a batter-friendly venue. Teams batting first have enjoyed the majority of success in ODIs at this ground. The outfield is quick, and dew is likely to play a role in the later stages of the match, potentially aiding the chasing side in the fourth quarter.

Saif Hassan, Soumya Sarkar, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Towhid Hridoy, Mehidy Hasan Miraz (c), Nurul Hasan (wk), Mahidul Islam Ankon, Rishad Hossain, Tanvir Islam, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman

Brandon King, Alick Athanaze, Keacy Carty, Shai Hope (c & wk), Sherfane Rutherford, Justin Greaves, Roston Chase, Romario Shepherd, Gudakesh Motie, Khary Pierre, Jayden Seales

West Indies opener Brandon King could be the key batter in this clash. He was the top-scorer for his team in the first ODI with 44 runs. Although West Indies fell short of victory, King’s performance showed promise. He will look to build on that start, dominate the opposition, and guide his team to a much-needed win.

Bangladesh leg-spinner Rishad Hossain could be the key bowler in this clash. He completely outsmarted the West Indies batters in the first ODI, finishing with match figures of 6/35 in nine overs. His clever spin consistently troubled the opposition, leaving the batters struggling and without much support from the other end.
