Bottom Line
If Bangladesh sweep the West Indies (3-0) in the WI vs BAN ODI Series 2022, the Providence Stadium in Guyana will take over as the venue with the best win/loss ratio in the ODI format. Besides, Bangladesh’s rating points in the ICC ODI rankings will also improve if they win all of the matches in the series. Therefore, Bangladesh have a lot to play for in this limited-overs contest against the West Indies.
