Bangladesh vs West Indies Highlights And Cricket Score 2nd Match - ODI Commentary
256 to win then. Have Bangladesh got enough to counter the dew? Will the pitch get some pace with the ball skidding on? But then, turn will come into play as well. Interesting questions. Join us back at 5.15 pm local (1115 GMT).
To be honest, Windies did not bowl badly. Keemo Paul was expensive and so was Oshane Thomas but the latter came back well towards the end, with 3 wickets overall. Roach was frugal while Devendra Bishoo was the pick of the bowlers, with just 1/27 in his 10 overs.
It was Mahmudullah's wicket in the 41st over which put the brakes on the scoring. Just 64 runs came in the final 10 overs for the loss of 4 wickets. Some excellent death overs' bowling and usage of slower balls cramped Bangladesh as they just kept swinging early.
Around the 24th over, the hosts lost Tamim and immediately Rahim followed. However, any chance of a comeback was thwarted as Mahmudullah and Shakib counter-attacked. The latter was more on the attack and was taking the game away but the death overs proved to be fatal for the Men In Green.
Hmmm... a mixed bag of an innings for the home side. They started cautiously, but then Tamim and Rahim started to go big. Their 111-run stand gave Bangladesh dreams of around 300 but loss in concentration came in between.
Oshane Thomas to Mashrafe Mortaza. Fuller again on off, Mortaza goes for a mighty heave but fails to connect it. Ends a superb over from Thomas. Just 5 came from the last two overs. Windies have pulled it back a bit. Bangladesh end with 255/7.

Bangladesh captain, Mashrafe Mortaza, says that there is plenty of variation in his bowling side and it did well in the last match. is looking forward to this one and hopes that his side bats well today. On being informed about the quintet featuring in 100 ODIs together (Himself, Rahim, Tamim, Shakib and Mahmudullah), Mashrafe says that there are plenty of memories, not possible to remember all but adds that they have enjoyed a lot playing together and Bangladesh cricket has come a long way forward.
Windies skipper, Rovman Powell, says that the decision is based due to the dew as the ball comes better onto the bat in the evening. Informs that Kieran Powell misses out today and young Chandrapaul Hemraj replaces him. Is not too worried about the last match loss and says that the guys just need to keep working on small areas. Says that he intends to use himself and Samuels while bowling.
TOSS - Time for the spin of the coin. Mortaza spins it, Heads is the call and it is HEADS. WINDIES OPT TO CHASE.
PITCH REPORT - Tino Mawoyo observes that it is a good surface and there are runs to be scored here. There will be true bounce and turn.
Hello and welcome to the 2nd ODI between Bangladesh and Windies at Mirpur. The hosts have started confidently and will look to seal the series today itself. On the other hand, the visitors have to come good with the bat. The openers need to give a solid start upfront so that the other batsmen don't crumble under pressure. Chase and Paul came good in the last match and the visitors will learn from their batting and do well in this match. This is a do-or-die match for them. The hosts would also like to improve their batting and Tamim Iqbal's form is crucial for them. At the same time, the home side would also like to improve their bowling in the death overs. What's in store for us? Stay tuned.
Okay. We have a decider. Not many would have expected that. Will toss play a crucial role? Bangladesh would be wary of that come the decider. Join us on Friday, November 14, 2018 at noon local (0600 GMT) for the third ODI at a different venue - Sylhet. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!
Aha. Victorious Windies captain Rovman Powell manages a smile. Praises his team for responding well under pressure and is happy that Bangladesh were restricted to 255. Hopes that the bowling continues to be consistent. Admits that there is a worry in the fact that the bowling seems to be excellent only in the last 10 overs, after conceding too many in the first few. On the way the chase was planned, Powell says that the team management knows that there is plenty of batting depth and in further games, the strategy needs to be the way it was tonight - one of the top 3 needs to bat deep.
SHAI HOPE HAS BEEN NAMED THE MAN OF THE MATCH FOR HIS UNBEATEN 146 FROM 144 BALLS. Is happy but wants to reserve his celebrations with one more game to go. Says that he just kept backing himself throughout the chase and in the last 2 overs, cut loose. On the advice given to Keemo Paul, Shai says that he just asked Keemo to bat as straight as possible and is glad that he stayed unbeaten along with him.
Bangladesh captain, Mashrafe Mortaza comes up first for a chat. Admits that he is disappointed and puts it down to not performing under pressure. Hopes to now come back well in the final ODI. Agrees that the choke at the death with the bat was the main setup to this defeat, as they could have scored more runs with so many wickets in hand. But also adds that dropped catches did not help later on in the field. Praises Shai Hope for staying till the end but stresses that with 24 (actually 22) needed from 2 overs, it was a 50-50 game. On Bangladesh's performance overall, Mash is happy with both departments and reckons that they fought hard.
Dew factor? Perhaps. That could be the only reason for Bangladesh's average performance with the ball. Shakib and Mehidy were the only bowlers doing well while the others struggled. Windies played smart cricket, not looking to attack the two spinners and the ploy worked. Consider this - Shakib and Mehidy combined - 19-0-67-1 while Mustafizur, Mortaza and Rubel went for 172 runs in 29 overs combined, for 5 wickets. Dropped catches did not help them either. Expect plenty of criticism from Mortaza. Please stay tuned for the presentation...
And now, finally, Shai Hope. They say that he has got loads of talent and potential. He has shown that here again. Did not allow the pressure to soak in and played confident, risk-free shots for majority of the innings. Now, only for him to be more consistent and become one of the best Windies batsmen in a long time.
Bowlers, you say? Make no mistake, Keemo Paul can bat. He batted responsibly and ensured that Hope was not starved off strike. Indeed - that unbeaten 7th wicket stand worth 71 in 64 balls was the biggest for the Windies and the best of the match.
In any game, partnerships are the key. But more so, in a run chase. The Windies strung decent stands - lost Hemraj early but then got 65 for the second wicket between Hope and Bravo, then another 62 between Hope and Samuels before a bit of a collapse stemmed their progress. It was at this time that Bangladesh thought they had a chance. The visitors slipped from 132/2 to 185/6 and with 71 needed from 66 balls and the bowlers exposed, it looked like the game was over.
A well-scripted run chase. In pursuit of a big target, one of your top three needs to score big. Shai Hope was that man tonight. His unbeaten 146 from just 144 balls provided a wonderful calmness to the others as they kept batting around him. His previous two ODI centuries had resulted in ties - third time, it has been lucky.
Pin-drop silence in the stadium. Now, someone starts to clap. Oh hang on, it is the Windies dugout. What a chase. There were talks of probably toss being the factor in the previous game. It has been proved right here.
