Tigers fight for series win

Bangladesh skipper Mashrafe Bin Mortaza won the toss and sent West Indies in to bat in the second one-day international (day/night) at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on Wednesday as the Tigers looked to seal their second ODI series win against West Indies in the Caribbean following their 48-run win in the first ODI on Sunday.

When this report was filed, West Indies were batting on 84 for three after 20 overs, having lost top three batsmen -- Chris Gayle for 29, Evin Lewis for 12 and Shai Hope for 25. Gayle was trapped in front by Mehidy Hasan Miraz after Mashrafe had removed Lewis with a delivery that jagged back in slightly to trap the left-hander right in front of the wicket. Hope was the third man out, looping a simple catch to extra-cover off the bowling of Shakib Al Hasan.

Bangladesh opted to field the same eleven, with opening batsman Anamul Haque getting another opportunity to prove his place after getting dismissed without scoring in the first ODI.

West Indies were forced into a change with Andre Russell, who played his first ODI in three years, reportedly injured and replaced by pacer Keemo Paul.

The third and final ODI is scheduled to take place in St. Kitts and Nevis on July 28.
