Bangladesh beat West Indies by 101 runs
Right then, that caps off an entertaining Test match, with the last two days proving to be nothing short of a blockbuster. Contrasting emotions are evident as Kraigg Brathwaite and Mehidy Hasan collect the trophy, with the series ending 1-1, their respective teams feeling the weight of victory and defeat. The whites will now give way to coloured clothing as the ODI series and the T20I series follow. All three games of the ODI series will be played at Warner Park in Basseterre, St Kitts, with the first game scheduled for Sunday, 8th December. The first ball will be bowled at 1.30 pm GMT but as always, you can join us early for all the build-up. Until then, take care and goodbye!
The skipper of the West Indies, Kraigg Brathwaite says that the talk was about being positive in the chase. Mentions that they are not at the level where they want to be and have a lot of young guys in the group. Tells that the youngsters need to go through more games to gain that experience and they will learn as they play. Mentions that you have to execute plans better and once you start doing that, you can do big things with the bat. Further adds that there are a lot of positives, especially Justin Greaves getting his first hundred. Tells that with the ball, they were good but they need to be consistent to win games.
The captain of Bangladesh, Mehidy Hasan says that this was a great win. Mentions that there are still certain areas where they can improve. Shares that they were feeling upbeat despite being bowled out for 164. Feels that all three pacers bowled really well and Taijul Islam was excellent in the second innings. Adds that Taijul has been brilliant for the last ten years. Tells that have a good pace bowling unit at the moment and they as a team, always look to improve with each game.
Taskin Ahmed and Jayden Seales have been declared the joint winners of the PLAYER OF THE SERIES award. Taskin took 11 wickets in the series while Seales had 10 to his name. Taskin says that he is very happy to have got the win and this award. Shares that he is glad to make a comeback to Test cricket and it was not easy to return from the shoulder injury. Feels that the hard work is paying off for them as a fast bowling unit. Further says that he enjoyed the banter with the opposition. Seales says that he has always loved Test cricket and he enjoys the battle with batters. States that his focus has always been on bowling the right lengths and putting pressure on the batters.
Taijul Islam is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his brilliance with the ball. He says that it is always a great feeling to win a Test match abroad. Mentions that the team didn't have much time to prepare before the series, so, he is very happy with the win. He says that these were challenging conditions and feels that the entire team showed a lot of dedication. Reckons that with the pace and spin attack they have, they can compete in any conditions.
Time for the presentation ceremony...
Just as Bangladesh were beginning to feel the pressure from the partnership between Kraigg Brathwaite and Keacy Carty, Taskin Ahmed provided the breakthrough by dismissing Carty. From there, Taijul Islam took centre stage and dismantled the Windies' batting unit with his 15th Test five-wicket haul. Kavem Hodge tried to keep the fight alive with his assertive footwork and calculated shot selection, but a single lapse in judgment proved costly. The lower order and the tail offered little resistance as Bangladesh marched towards a historic victory.
Earlier on Day 4, the tourists resumed with a lead of 211 runs and five wickets in hand. Despite wickets tumbling at the other end, Jaker Ali held firm with a remarkable 91-run knock. His innings proved pivotal, adding valuable runs and propelling Bangladesh to a commanding lead of 286. Faced with a daunting target, well beyond the highest successful run chase of 212 in Tests at Sabina Park, the Windies were staring at history. Their chase got off to a rocky start, with Mikyle Louis falling early. Kraigg Brathwaite, however, batted proactively on either side of the Lunch break as he tried to anchor his team's response.
The third day, known as the 'moving day,' truly delivered, with the momentum swinging in favour of Bangladesh dramatically. Nahid Rana spearheaded the tourists' fightback, claiming his maiden Test five-wicket haul as the hosts crumbled from a comfortable 85/1 to 146 all out, conceding an 18-run lead. In their second innings, Bangladesh's batters showcased intent, with Shahadat Hossain, Shadman Islam, and Mehidy Hasan making significant contributions to put their side in a commanding position.
Day 2 began steadily for Bangladesh, but their troubles started when Jayden Seales and Shamar Joseph were introduced into the attack. Joseph struck first, and Seales followed, wreaking havoc on the tourists. Despite some resistance from Mehidy Hasan and the tail, Bangladesh were bowled out for 164. Seales was the standout with sensational figures of 15.5-10-5-4, while Joseph chipped in with three wickets. In reply, the Windies lost Mikyle Louis early but skipper Kraigg Brathwaite anchored the innings, guiding his side to 70/1 at stumps on Day 2, trailing by 94 runs.
Test cricket returned to Sabina Park after three years, but rain in the lead-up to the match led to a damp start, with only 30 overs possible on the opening day. Bangladesh won the toss and opted to bat, but Kemar Roach struck early with two quick wickets. However, Shadman Islam's gritty half-century, supported by Shahadat Hossain, steadied the innings. Both batters survived dropped catches, allowing the visitors to end the day on a positive note.
Bangladesh script a famous win in Kingston! The Tigers have secured their first Test victory in the Caribbean in 15 years. They end the two-match series on level footing with an emphatic 101-run win. Few could have anticipated such a turnaround, especially considering the absences of Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mushfiqur Rahim, coupled with the drubbing they endured in the first Test. As for the West Indies, they have been outplayed and outclassed over the last couple of days. Having bowled Bangladesh out for 164 and being at 85/1 in their first innings, they let the game slip from that position and never managed to regain their foothold in the contest.

OUT! LBW! A confident shout and the finger is raised! Kemar Roach thinks about the review and takes it.

Gets beaten on the inside edge and wears it high on the back thigh pad. The UltraEdge shows no bat and Ball Tracking shows that the ball is clipping the top of the leg stump. It is umpire's call and therefore, the on-field decision stands. Two in the over for Hasan. Bangladesh are just a wicket away now.

Drinks break! Bangladesh find themselves on the brink of a historic victory. Taijul Islam, with his 15th Test five-wicket haul, has been the architect of their dominance, spinning a web around the West Indies batters. With no recognized batter left at the crease, the hosts are left clutching at straws. Only a miracle can deny Bangladesh what would be their first Test win in the Caribbean in 15 years.

OUT! LBW! A loud shout and the finger is raised! Kavem Hodge smiles as he takes the review straight away! Is the inside edge going to save him again? Darted in from around the wicket by Taijul, on middle and leg, Kavem Hodge makes the mistake of going back to a full delivery. Tries to work it away on the leg side but plays all around it and gets rapped on the front pad. Hodge has started walking off after seeing the replays on the big screen. There are a few murmurs when the ball is next to the bat but those are not conclusive enough to indicate that there is bat involved. Over to Ball Tracking now. It is three reds with the ball crashing into the leg stump. A massive blow to the West Indies as Hodge departs for 55 (75).

Taijul Islam To Kavem Hodge
FIFTY FOR HODGE! Short and around off, Hodge goes deep in the crease and punches it to the left of cover-point for a single to get to his third Test half-century. A brilliant knock so far from the right-hander. Just a raise of the bat from Hodge as he knows that the job is far from over.
Welcome back for the third and final session of the day. Mehidy Hasan and his men break from the huddle and make their way out to the middle. Taijul Islam will resume proceedings with the ball. Taijul to Hodge first up. Here we go!
... DAY 4, SESSION 3 ...
The intent shown by Brathwaite and Hodge forced Mehidy's hand as he introduced himself into the attack and brought Taijul Islam on from the other end. The left-arm spinner did not disappoint, dismissing Brathwaite and Alick Athanaze in quick succession. Amidst the fall of wickets at the other end, Hodge has been decisive with his footwork and has found boundaries with regularity. With 154 runs still required and significant assistance for the spinners, Hodge will be pivotal to the hosts' fortunes in this game. As for Bangladesh, Mehidy himself has not been particularly effective, and we might see him bring a pacer on from his end, while Taijul is likely to continue from the other. Back shortly for the third session!
Another gripping session in this Test! It was truly a tale of two halves, with the first part going the way of the hosts as Kraigg Brathwaite kept them steady. However, the reintroduction of Taijul Islam allowed Bangladesh to claim the latter half of the session. Brathwaite picked up where he left off before the Lunch break as he continued to bat proactively. As Nahid Rana and Taskin Ahmed operated in tandem, Bangladesh managed to regain some control, with Taskin eventually dismissing Carty. However, Brathwaite remained resolute, and together with Kavem Hodge, the pair ticked along nicely.

Nahid Rana To Kavem Hodge
FOUR! Punished! Short of a good length, on off, Kavem Hodge gets it at a good height. He swivels and nails the pull through backward square leg for a boundary.
Drinks break! West Indies started the session proactively with Kraigg Brathwaite continuing to bat positively and Keacy Carty following suit. Ever since Nahid Rana and Taskin Ahmed have operated in tandem, Bangladesh have mnaged to regain some control. Taskin, who got rid of Carty, is amidst a good spell and these two batters will have to weather the storm.

Taskin Ahmed To Kraigg Brathwaite
A confident shout for LBW but turned down! Bangladesh look convinced as they went up in unison. Mehidy Hasan takes the review with four seconds left on the timer. The ball brushed the front pad first before going onto hit the back leg, so, the ball has some distance to travel. The UltraEdge shows no bat and the Ball Tracking shows that the ball would have missed the leg stump. This was fuller in length, on middle and leg, Kraigg Brathwaite is caught in his crease and tries to flick it away on the leg side. Gets beaten on the inside edge to get rapped on the pads. Bangladesh lose their review.
