West Indies vs Bangladesh Team Previews

West Indies

Devon Thomas, Keemo Paul, and Obed McCoy make their T20I comeback during this three-match T20I series. When it comes to batting, the ultimate responsibility will be on Shamarh Brooks, Rovman Powell, Brandon King, Devon Thomas, Nicholas Pooran, and Kyle Mayers to provide the majority of the runs. Middle-order batsman Nicholas Pooran has led the West Indies batting statistics since July 2021. Pooran has 766 runs at an average of 36.47 in 27 T20Is, with six half-centuries to his name. The major emphasis will be on bowlers like Alzarri Joseph, Obed McCoy, Hayden Walsh, Romario Shepherd, and Akeal Hosein to produce critical breakthroughs. Left-arm spinner Akeal Hosein has been a reliable performer for the West Indies in the T20 format, taking 15 wickets in 20 innings. There will be several changes from the West Indies IT20 team that faced India in Kolkata in February. Only five players from the XI that were defeated by 17 runs in that game are in the team for this series. Nicholas Pooran will captain the team, with Rovman Powell serving as vice-captain.

Bangladesh

Bangladesh have named opener Munim Shahriar, wicketkeeper Anamul Haque, and Shakib Al Hasan to their T20I squad. The squad will depend on the seasoned three of Shakib Al Hasan, Liton Das, and Mahmudullah Riyad to supply the majority of the runs in the batting section. Mahmudullah Riyad has played well for Bangladesh in the T20 format, scoring 495 runs at an average of 23.57. Mustafizur Rahman, Shakib Al Hasan, Mahedi Hasan, and Nasum Ahmed will be expected to make early inroads in the bowling department. Mustafizur Rahman, a left-arm pacer, has led Bangladesh’s T20 bowling statistics in the last 12 months with 29 wickets in 21 innings. Bangladesh are expected to make only a few changes from their previous T20I against Afghanistan at the beginning of March. Mushfiqur Rahim, an experienced batter, and Mohammad Naim, who has battled with form, have not flown to the Caribbean for the trip.
