1:11pm A very strong finish from Bangladesh, who take 104 runs off the last ten overs. Mahmudullah and Jaker stitched together a 140-run unbeaten partnership to ensure they don't miss out on the strong platform they had. Bangladesh's batting show started right from the top, with Soumya and Mehidy scoring fluent half-centuries. West Indies should have had the former in the first over but King dropped a simple chance. They then dismissed Soumya and Mehidy in quick time but could not make inroads, and are now faced with a tall chase. Will West Indies manage a clean sweep or will Bangladesh head into the T20Is with a consolation win? Shashwat will be here in a short while
Alzarri Joseph: "We talk about doing well in the powerplay, today was my turn. Pretty good effort. Very difficult [with the wind] but did well to restrict Bangladesh, small ground as well. There are a few things we can improve on with the ball. Once we have a good powerplay, our batters should [chase it down]."
Change of bat for Mahmudullah, seems to have damaged it with that last boundary
Joseph for the last over
