Bangladesh vs West Indies Team Preview & Squads
Bangladesh
Litton Das leads the side with growing maturity, balancing aggression at the top with the responsibility of anchoring innings. Though his recent T20 record has been mixed, his leadership energy and tactical clarity have impressed the dressing room.
BAN batting lineup has the right blend of experience and youth, but consistency remains its biggest hurdle. Towhid Hridoy and Shamim Hossain have the potential to change games in the middle overs.
BAN bowling unit, spearheaded by Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman, has been solid but lacked penetration in the death overs. Rishad Hossain’s leg-spin offered variety, while Mahedi Hasan’s control was useful in containing runs.

They were bowled out for 149 in 19.4 overs, struggling particularly against the spinners. The 16-run loss exposed their lack of middle-order resilience under scoreboard pressure.
