Bangladesh v West Indies 1st ODI matche.


Bangladesh 201/3 (40.2 ov)


West Indies 199 (46.5 ov)

 Bangladesh won by 7 wickets(with 58balls remaining)

Tamim Iqbal and Anamul Haque added 88 for the opening wicket


Tamim Iqbal cuts on his way to 58

Anamul Haque made 41

Sohag Gazi picked up four wickets on ODI debut

Chris Gayle was out for 35

Sohag Gazi took four wickets on debut

Four debutants in the game, and no Shakib Al Hasan, but Bangladesh were never in any trouble, especially after West Indies opening partnership was broken.
The shot selection of some of the West Indies batsmen will be questioned, and the general intensity was not at the level the visitors will want. The bowling too was lacklustre, but with too many deliveries down the leg-side and plenty short and wide.
A terrific win for Bangladesh, who have often been in control of games for brief spells before letting it slip. There wre no slips today, aes Bangladesh coasted to victory with little sign of any hiccup. The packed house at Khulna couldn't have asked for anything more
