The West Indies secured a hard-fought 14-run victory against Bangladesh in the second T20I on Wednesday, clinching the series with an unassailable 2-0 lead. Despite a shaky batting performance and multiple fielding errors, the Caribbean side’s bowlers delivered a match-winning performance at the Bir Sreshtho Flight Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium. Romario Shepherd, Akeal Hosein, and Jason Holder spearheaded the bowling attack, restricting Bangladesh to 135 for eight in their 20 overs. This marked only the West Indies’ second bilateral T20I series win in their last nine attempts. Earlier, skipper Shai Hope and Alick Athanaze provided a solid foundation with half-centuries, but a middle-order collapse limited the visitors to 149 for nine. Bangladesh’s Tanzid Hasan top-scored with 61, but the hosts fell short despite several dropped catches by the West Indies. The final T20I will be played on Friday.
