Bangladesh vs West Indies T20I Series 2022
WI vs BAN Series 2022: Top 7 performers from Bangladesh team
Bangladesh had a rather disappointing start to the 2022 West Indies tour, losing both Test and T20 format series. Their overall team performance in both formats was utterly disappointing, with the exception of a few standout individual performances. However, Bangladesh did make a strong comeback in the ODI format and whitewashed the Caribbean side. Let's take a look at the seven best Bangladeshi performers in the WI vs BAN Series 2022.
Bangladesh team's best 7 performers in the WI vs BAN Series 2022
Bangladesh’s batting performance throughout the Caribbean tour was disappointing. In contrast, the bowling unit had a spectacular outing during the tour. Here are the top seven Bangladeshi performers in the WI vs BAN Series 2022.
Shakib Al Hasan
M: 5 | Runs: 240 | HS: 68* | Wickets: 3 | BBI: 1/10
All-rounder Shakib Al Hasan took part in the Test and T20I series but skipped the ODI series. Despite the fact that Bangladesh lost both Tests and T20Is, Shakib was one of the best players in these two formats. He was the third highest scorer in the Test series with 138 runs. Shakib struck two fifties in the first Test. In the T20 format, Shakib was the second-top scorer with 102 runs and also picked up a couple of wickets.

Tamim Iqbal
M: 5 | Runs: 218 | HS: 50*
Tamim had a quiet tour with the bat in the West Indies. He only had one half-century in seven innings. However, Tamim Iqbal’s performance as a captain in the ODI format was eye-catching. His leadership qualities and on-field decision-making were brilliant. That is why Tamim Iqbal’s captaincy was one of the major positive points for the Bangladesh campaign.
Khaled Ahmed
M: 2 | Wickets: 10 | BBI: 5/106
Khaled Ahmed's selection was not appreciated by some Bangladeshi cricket experts. However, Khaled showed in the Test series that he is possibly Bangladesh's best fast bowler in the longer-version format in overseas conditions. Khaled finished the Test series with 10 wickets, including a five-wicket haul in the first innings of the second match.

Taijul Islam
M: 1 | Wickets: 5 | BBI: 5/28
Taijul Islam had to wait till the last fixture to finally play a match on the West Indies tour. The left-handed orthodox spinner seized the opportunity by picking up five wickets in the third ODI and helped Bangladesh whitewash the Windies in the limited-over series. It was Taijul Islam’s best bowling figure (5/28) in ODI cricket.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz
M: 5 | Runs: 33 | HS: 16* | Wickets: 14 | BBI: 4/29
Off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz is considered a utility player for the Bangladesh national side. He is a very effective bowler in the Test and ODI formats and can bat a bit in the lower middle-order. Miraz didn’t make any impact with the bat, but he had a successful tour with the ball. Miraz didn’t play in the T20I series but picked up 14 wickets in the Test and ODI formats.

Nasum Ahmed
M: 5 | Wickets: 7 | BBI: 3/19
Nasum Ahmed made his ODI debut in the WI vs BAN Series 2022 and made an immediate impact for his side. Tamim Iqbal utilized him at the beginning of the innings, and Nasum’s spin caused a lot of problems for the Caribbean batters in the ODI series. The left-arm orthodox spinner picked up 7 wickets on the West Indies tour.
Nurul Hasan Sohan
M: 8 | Runs: 217 | HS: 64
Nurul Hasan Sohan once again proved that he is the best wicket-keeper batter in Bangladesh at the moment. Nurul had a good time with the gloves on the West Indies tour, picking up 10 catches and making 2 stumpings. Nurul’s highlight innings on the tour was when he made a 100-run partnership with captain Shakib Al Hasan in the second innings of the first Test. Besides, he was among the top run scorers for Bangladesh on the tour.

Way Forward
Bangladesh lost two series and won one on their 2022 West Indies tour. Bangladesh players have a lot to take from this tour, which will be useful for better performance in the next series. Bangladesh team management should take note of these issues and take steps to improve the performance of the players. However, Bangladesh departed the West Indies with confidence after winning the ODI format in 2022. Otherwise, it would have been a disappointing tour for Bangladesh.

BAN vs WI T20I Series 2022: Shakib Al Hasan Reaches Historic Landmark
Bangladesh lost the second match of the BAN vs WI T20I Series 2022 at Windsor Park, Dominica on Sunday (July 3). The West Indies have taken a 1-0 lead with this victory and they will clinch the series if they win the 3rd match at the Providence Stadium, Guyana, on Thursday (July 7). Except for Shakib Al Hasan’s historic landmark, Bangladesh had no mentionable achievement in this contest. How the Bangladesh team fared in the second match and Shakib Al Hasan’s new milestone are discussed in this article.
Bangladesh vs West Indies 2nd T20I: Match Report
On Sunday, Windsor Park hosted its first international match since the stadium was renovated following hurricane Maria damage in 2017. Before that, only two T20I matches were held at this venue and both were low-scoring affairs. Therefore, predicting how the pitch would behave during the contest was difficult.
However, the curator was determined to build a fresh wicket which would assist the batters to score runs. The effort to make a batting-friendly wicket was successful as more than 350 runs were scored during the contest.
Read ENG vs IND 2022: Bumrah breaks record as India dominate 5th Test
Bangladesh had to chase 194 set by the Windies to clinch the contest. They were practically down and out in the run chase when 3 wickets were down at 23 in 3 overs. Shakib and Afif then tried to repair the innings with a 55-run stand between them on the fourth wicket. Afif Hossain played a 34-run knock before losing his wicket to Romario Shepherd. But by then Bangladesh already played 10.2 overs and they required 116 runs in 58 balls with 6 wickets in hand.
It was a testing time for the power hitters of Bangladesh to see whether they were capable enough to pull off such a target by maintaining a 200 strike rate. Expectedly, all the hitters failed big time in the contest, and Bangladesh finished their innings on 158/6. Among the power hitters, Nurul Hasan contributed 7 off 13, Mosaddek Hossain made 15 off 11 and Mahedi Hasan remained unbeaten with 5* off 2.
Shakib Al Hasan remained with 68* off 52 balls and became the second Bangladeshi batter after Mahmudullah Riyad to score 2,000 T20I runs.

Earlier, West Indies scored 193/5 in their allotted 20 overs after opting to bat first. Opener Brandon King played a 57-run knock and made an important 74-run stand with captain Nicholas Pooran (34) for the third wicket. Later, Rovman Powell’s whirlwind 61 off 28 balls knock guided the Windies to score close to 200 in their innings. Pacer Shoriful Islam picked up the highest 2 wickets for Bangladesh.
The first cricketer to amass 2000 runs and 100 wickets in T20I format
Shakib Al Hasan performed consistently despite Bangladesh's underwhelming effort in the second game of the BAN vs WI T20I Series 2022. He took a wicket and scored a half-century with the bat.
Shakib completed his 2,000 T20I runs in the match and became the first player in history to amass 2k runs and snatch 100 wickets in the format. This is such a unique feat by the ace all-rounder. Only Pakistan’s Mohammad Hafez has 2,000 runs and 50 wickets in the T20 format. Let’s take a look at the seven players with a minimum of 1,000 runs and 50 T20I wickets.

Aftermath
The Bangladesh team’s overall performance in the second match of the BAN vs WI T20I Series 2022 wasn’t convincing. They couldn’t create a winning situation in any moment of the contest as the Windies deservedly won the game with a complete domination. Bangladesh’s approach should be more aggressive in the third match in order to tie this Twenty20 series.
As for Shakib Al Hasan, the match was a historic occasion for the ace all-rounder. Shakib adds to his legacy by becoming the first cricketer in T20I history to score 2000 runs and take 100 wickets.

BAN vs WI 2022: Bangladesh aim for strong comeback in T20I series
The first match of the BAN vs WI 2022 Twenty20 series will be held on Saturday (July 2) at the Windsor Park ground. The match will start at 11.30 p.m. (Bangladesh Standard Time). Bangladesh have to regroup themselves after a demoralizing display in the Test series against the Windies. There will be some changes in the Bangladesh T20 setup as veteran Mahmudullah Riyad will lead the side. On the other hand, Nicholas Pooran will lead the West Indies side. The Caribbean side has also made some changes to their T20 squad. The first T20I match preview is discussed in this article.
West Indies vs Bangladesh Series 2022: First T20I Match Preview
The series is very important for both the teams in order to identify the best possible squads for the upcoming 2022 ICC Twenty20 World Cup. Bangladesh have never played at Windsor Park, the venue of the first match. Oppositely, West Indies have played two matches and won one at this ground. Overall, Bangladesh have faced the Caribbean team three times in the West Indies, but they have failed to win any of those games.

Read Mehidy, Taskin added to Bangladesh T20I squad
Bangladesh
Bangladesh’s major concern at the moment is their batting. The team management is searching for an answer to a few questions regarding batting, such as: will the batters continue to struggle in the T20 format? Will they find a viable opening pair for the T20? Who will play the anchor role in the absence of Tamim Iqbal? And what’s the solution to power-hitting in the middle-order? In other words, the batters have to step up and show more responsibility in their approach.
Munim Shahriar and Anamul Haque are likely to open the innings as Mohammad Naim has been out of form for quite some time. For Anamul Haque, it will be another opportunity for him to cement his place in the Bangladesh squad. He should seize the chance by showing his true potential during the 3-match series. Besides, Litton, Shakib, and Mahmudullah will have to play a big role in the middle overs.
In bowling, Mustafizur’s cutter will cause problems for the Caribbean batters. Taskin and Shoriful have been brilliant for Bangladesh since 2021. Besides, left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed could give a breakthrough at the start of the innings. Bangladesh’s bowling department seems more equipped than batting. As a result, they may have to undertake a little more responsibility in the game.

Top-Order: Munim Shahriar, Anamul Haque, Litton Das (wicket-keeper);
Middle-Order: Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah Riyad (captain), Afif Hossain, Mahedi Hasan, Nasum Ahmed;
Lower-Order: Shoriful Islam, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman
West Indies
The West Indies last played a T20I series in February against India. Kieron Pollard announced his retirement after the series and Nicholas Pooran was appointed as the new captain of the West Indies T20 side. There are some changes in their squad too, as household names like Chris Gayle, Andre Russell, DJ Bravo, Sunil Narine, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Holder, none of them are in the squad.
Read Shakib uncertain for West Indies ODIs
The West Indies Cricket Board is looking to build a new squad for their Twenty20 side. In the current setup, Brandon King, Kyle Mayers, Nicholas Pooran, and Rovman Powell will be key in the batting line-ups. In bowling, Romario Shepherd and Alzarri Joseph will likely lead the pace bowling unit. They also have Akeal Hosein and Hayden Walsh, both very good spinners.
Probable Playing XI (West Indies)
Top-Order: Brandon King, Shamarh Brooks, Kyle Mayers;
Middle-Order: Nicholas Pooran (wicket-keeper & captain), Rovman Powell, Odean Smith, Romario Shepherd, Keemo Paul;
Lower-Order: Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Hayden Walsh.
Weather Forecast and Pitch Report
The first match will be held on Saturday, and unfortunately, there is a strong chance of rain on that particular day in Dominica. There have only been two games played here thus far. According to the Windsor Park ground statistics, pace bowlers who have the ability to swing can thrive in the power play. It has been a low-scoring venue so far, but this statistic could change in the future.
Read Donald wants a fast, furious Taskin
Bottom Line
Facing the West Indies in their own backyard will be a real challenge for Bangladesh. Team Tigers can take inspiration from their 2-1 series victory over the Caribbean side in 2018. Though the majority of the players in the 2018 Bangladesh squad will not be seen in the upcoming BAN vs WI 2022 T20I series. It’s a challenge captain Mahmudullah and the youngsters will have to take during the contest.
On the other hand, the West Indies will miss some key players, and a new-look squad will face Bangladesh. The opening game of the series will give an idea of which team will have an advantage in the following two matches. Therefore, both sides will try to outperform each other in the first T20I.

BAN vs WI T20I Series 2022: 5 Bangladeshi players to watch out
Bangladesh’s performance in the Test format against West Indies was demoralizing, losing the series by a 2-0 margin. The Tigers T20I team needs to find a way to stop the Windies' aggression as well as to dominate them. Bangladesh’s target should be to clinch the BAN vs WI T20I Series 2022. Losing the series would be regarded as a failure for the Mahmudullah-led Bangladesh side. Let’s take a look at the five players from Bangladesh who could be vital in the Bangladesh versus West Indist T20I contest.
5 Key Bangladeshi players in T20 series against West Indies
Bangladesh must follow the proper strategy in order to win the BAN vs WI T20I Series 2022. Besides, the players have to execute the plan on the field. In this case, some players have to play with a little more responsibility. The five Bangladeshi cricketers who could be important in the series against the West Indies are discussed in this article.
Mahmudullah Riyad
T20Is: 115 | Runs: 2,002 | HS: 64* | Ave: 23.83 | 50s: 6 | Wickets: 37 | BBI: 3/10 | Ave: 26.94 | Econ: 7.19
Captain Mahmudullah will be a crucial part of Bangladesh’s middle order. He must accept responsibility for hastening the death rate. Riyad can also be an effective breakthrough bowler when needed. Besides, all eyes will be on his captaincy, especially how he will lead the Bangladesh team. Since January 2021, Riyad has been Bangladesh's second-highest run-scorer in T20Is.
Read Bangladesh’s T20I Fixtures Before the ICC Twenty20 World Cup 2022
Shakib Al Hasan
T20Is: 96 | Runs: 1,908 | HS: 84 | Ave: 22.44 | 50s: 9 | Wickets: 119 | BBI: 5/20 | Ave: 19.88 | Econ: 6.67 | 5W: 1
There is no doubt that ace all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan will be a vital player for Bangladesh in the upcoming BAN vs WI T20I Series 2022. Among the Bangladeshi players, Shakib has picked up the most wickets with 19 against West Indies in the T20 format. So, this stat will encourage him to perform even better in the series.
Litton Das
T20Is: 48 | Runs: 917 | HS: 61 | Ave: 19.93 | 50s: 5
Even though Litton’s performance in the recent Twenty20 Internationals hasn’t been so impressive, his experience will come in handy for Bangladesh during the series. In the absence of Mushfiqur Rahim and Tamim Iqbal, Litton will have to play the anchor role for the team.
Read BAN vs WI Test Series 2022: How Bangladesh’s players performed against the Windies
Mustafizur Rahman
T20Is: 63 | Wickets: 87 | BBI: 5/22 | Ave: 19.65 | Econ: 7.57 | 5W: 1
Left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman’s cutter delivery will be a major weapon to put West Indian batters under strain in the series. Mustafizur alone can take the game away from the West Indies team if he finds his best rhythm during the series. The recent record is also in Mustafizur’s favor as he has picked up the highest 29 wickets for Bangladesh since 2021.
Nasum Ahmed
T20Is: 20 | Wickets: 26 | BBI: 4/10 | Ave: 16.00 | Econ: 6.44
Left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed has been a revolution for Bangladesh in the T20 format since making his debut against New Zealand in March 2021. Nasum’s ability to read the batter's mind and intelligent bowling has been impressive. Captain Mahmudullah usually deploys Nasum at the start of the innings to put extra pressure on the batters. This crafty spinner has so far been a big success for Bangladesh in the game's shortest format.
Read Bangladesh Suffer its 100 Test Defeats
Bottom Line
The West Indies’ recent Twenty20 form hasn’t been impressive. Some new players have been incorporated into the Caribbean T20 squad. The hosts are therefore now a less experienced team than they were before. Bangladesh should seize the opportunity and strive to come up with a plan of strategy that would allow them to outperform the Windies side in the BAN vs. WI T20I Series 2022. Bangladesh have the real potential to win the series if their players play to the best of their abilities.

After the completion of the Test series, Bangladesh will play a 3-match T20I series against the West Indies. Mahmudullah Riyad will lead the Bangladesh team, while West Indian selectors have yet to announce their squad for the series. A new captain will lead the West Indian side in the WI vs BAN T20I Series 2022, as former T20I captain Kieron Pollard announced his international retirement last April. The series is crucial for both teams to assess strengths and weaknesses as the T20 World Cup 2022 approaches. Let's look at the H2H stats, venues, and schedule for the upcoming T20I series.
West Indies vs Bangladesh: H2H T20I Statistics
Bangladesh and West Indies first met in a T20I match at the 2007 ICC World Twenty20. Bangladesh won the contest by 6 wickets. Both teams have met 13 times, with the West Indies leading the head-to-head record with seven victories. Bangladesh have won five matches and one had no result.

Bottom Line
The Twenty20 team of Bangladesh is not as competitive as other ICC full member sides. Bangladesh don't have enough bowlers who are proficient in this specific format or enough power hitters. On the other hand, the current West Indian squad is not as strong as they were a few years ago. Furthermore, the 2021 T20 World Cup was a complete disaster for both countries. Because of this, both teams will participate in the WI vs BAN T20I Series 2022 as a means of getting prepared for the forthcoming Twenty20 World Cup in Australia.

Bangladesh vs West Indies Series 2022: Full Fixtures and Squads
The Bangladesh national cricket team will travel to the West Indies in June to play a bilateral series against the host Caribbean side. Bangladesh will play three series: Tests, One-Day Internationals, and Twenty-20 Internationals. The Test series will be part of the ICC's Test Championship, whereas the one-day series will not be part of the Cricket World Cup Super League. The Twenty20 International series will serve as a warm-up for the impending Twenty20 World Cup 2022. Take a look at the Tigers' Test, ODI, and T20I squads, as well as the full Bangladesh vs West Indies Series 2022 schedule.
Bangladesh's Squads for the West Indies Tour 2022
Bangladesh will play the West Indies in a two-match Test series during their next tour. In addition, the three-match ODI and T20I series will be crucial in helping them improve their current rankings.
Bangladesh have a chance to leapfrog West Indies in the Test Championship points standings if they whitewash the hosts in the series. The Tigers are in the eighth position with 16.67 percent, while the West Indies are in the seventh position with 35.71 percent. So, the Mominul Haque-led Bangladesh Test team should come up with a better strategy in order to unsettle the Caribbean side. Despite this, the visitors will face a monumental task given their recent Test performances. In addition, Mominul Haque’s performances both as skipper and batter have been under the radar.
Read Is Mominul doing enough as Test Captain?
The selectors picked five pacers, including Mustafizur Rahman, for the Test series. Taskin Ahmed and Shoriful Islam were both dropped due to injury, while off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz returned to the squad. Apart from that, veteran batsman Mushfiqur Rahim made himself unavailable to take part in the Hajj pilgrimage.
Bangladesh Test Squad
Mominul Haque (captain), Tamim Iqbal, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Shakib Al Hasan, Litton Das, Nurul Hasan Sohan, Yasir Ali, Mosaddek Hossain, Taijul Islam, Mehidy Hassan, Mustafizur Rahman, Ebadot Hossain, Khaled Ahmed, Shohidul Islam, Rejaur Rahman Raja
Tamim Iqbal-led Bangladesh ODI side has been doing well in recent times. Under his leadership, the Tigers recently beat the Proteas 2-1 in an ODI series away from home. So, the expectation is really high from the ODI side compared to the other two formats. Bangladesh did win a bilateral ODI series in the West Indies in 2018 and there is no reason why they wouldn’t be able to repeat the same in the upcoming series. Besides, Bangladesh have a chance to improve their rankings to sixth position if they whitewash the West Indies and Pakistan lose their next series against the Caribbean side.

Mahmudullah Riyad will lead the Bangladesh T20I side against the West Indies. With the T20 World Cup 2022 set to take place in October, this series will be vital for them in putting together an ideal playing XI for the main event. There are some exciting T20 players in the squad who have the potential to represent Bangladesh for many years.

Bottom Line

However, the T20I series can be difficult to predict because both sides are going through a transitional phase.
