Team Analysis
The West Indian squad enjoys their superior batting line-up as their main strength. With a fiery top-order and an abundance of anchoring players in the middle-order, we won’t be surprised to see a massive target on the scoreboard if West Indies wins the toss and choose to bat first. Renowned players include Mikyle Louis, Alick Athanaze, Justin Greaves, and their classy skipper, Kraigg Brathwaite.
Kraigg Brathwaite is a reliable Test opener and an astute captain, known for his patience and ability to grind out long innings. With over 5,000 runs, an average of approximately 35, and 13 centuries, he has been a cornerstone for the West Indies. In the bowling unit, Alzari Joseph and Blessing Muzarbani can prove to be real assets for their team. These youngsters can produce important breakthroughs for their team in the form of quick wickets.
An inexperienced and young opening duo, who fails to provide the Bangladeshi squad with a favorable opening is the main deficiency in the Asian team line-up. This coupled with the absence of legendary Bangladeshi test stars like Shakib al Hasan and Mahmudullah means the entire team gets bowled out easily and poor batting performance becomes the main reason for their defeat.
Special praise goes to the star Asian pacer, Taskin Ahmed for his phenomenal performance in the last test match, where the young gun took home 8 important wickets. Taskin is nothing short of a valuable tool for his team. Moreover, the in-form skipper of the Bangladeshi squad, Mehidy Hasan Miraz is also a strength for his team’s batting line-up. Miraz has a knack for forming partnerships and plays an important role in propelling his team towards victories.
