Bowlers help Bangladesh take 1-0 lead

Bangladesh, after a progression of disappointments across designs, figured out how to enlist a success in the downpour-damaged initial one-day worldwide against West Indies at the Providence Stadium in Guyana, on Sunday. Subsequent to having restricted the hosts to 149 for 9 in the 41-over-a-side challenge, Bangladesh pursued down the all out with six wickets close by and 9.1 overs in excess.

Put in to bat, West Indies got having a difficult time in the wake of losing Shai Hope for a first ball-duck - tidied up by Mustafizur Rahman. Nasum Ahmed, the sluggish left-arm spinner was particularly close, yielding just three runs off his initial five overs. With the tension of a sluggish scoring rate mounting, Kyle Mayers was bowled by Mehidy Hasan in the eleventh over while endeavoring to make room and hit.

It nearly turned into a pattern for the West Indian innings. Indeed, even as a few hitters took as much time as is needed in the center, they couldn't contribute fundamentally and were excused in the bid to up the scoring rate. Shoriful Islam and Mehidy were the central wreckers of the West Indian destruction, joining to pick seven wickets between them.

By the 34th over, the hosts were decreased to 110 for 9, preceding the last wicket sets of Anderson Philip and Jayden Seales consolidated to fasten an unbeaten stand of 31 runs in 42 balls.

Bangladesh got off to no better a beginning accordingly either, with Litton Das getting caught for a 9-ball 1 by Akeal Hosein. Notwithstanding, Tamim Iqbal took the assault toward the West Indian bowlers. The southpaw paddle-cleared Hosein for a limit prior to boring Seales through the covers for a four and getting Philip over fine leg for a six. Nonetheless, his innings was stopped on a 25-ball 33 when a misunderstanding with Najmul Hossain brought about his run out.

Be that as it may, Bangladesh didn't permit the hosts to infiltrate excessively profound into the line-up. In the organization of Najmul, Mahmudullah kept the pursuit consistent, adding a 49-run represent the third wicket. Indeed, even as the pitch was slow and helping the spinners, Bangladesh didn't break a lot of sweat in the run-pursue, in genuinely natural circumstances.

West Indies struck two times with hardly a pause in between, with Gudakesh Motie and Nicholas Pooran representing the excusals of Najmul and Afif Hossain separately one after another, diminishing the guests to 111 for 4, however that wasn't to end up being a danger.

Mahmudullah skillfully conveyed Bangladesh over the line with an unbeaten 69-ball 41, helped by Nurul Hasan's unbeaten 27-ball 20.
