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]."

Joseph to Mahmudullah, 2 runs, Length ball outside off, Mahmudullah swings across the line but skies it high off the toe end. Not well timed as it lands well short of long-on running in

Change of bat for Mahmudullah, seems to have damaged it with that last boundary

Joseph to Mahmudullah, FOUR, My word, what a shot. Joseph nails the yorker outside off, Mahmudullah is deep in his crease and directs it wide of short third and too wide for deep backward point to get across

Joseph for the last over
