The threat of rain loomed over gloomy Chittagong but the weather stayed clear enough for Bangladesh to demolish West Indies for their second-lowest total in one-day internationals. From 33 for 1, ** Bangladesh’s bowlers began to hack through the line-up as nine wickets fell for 28 runs.** The strong crowd that turned up despite the wetness cheered as the home side dished out retribution for the two defeats in the series, and for the humiliation in the 2011 World Cup.
West Indies had lost only two and four wickets during their victories in Mirpur but this Chittagong pitch was different. The pace was sluggish, the bounce low and the ball did not come on to the bat. There was turn too. To add to that, rain on the eve of the match had left the outfield soggy, and shots hit along the ground lost speed quickly. Batting conditions were far from ideal, and Mushfiqur Rahim immediately chose to bowl after winning four out of four tosses on the tour.
