Historic test win for BANGLADESH

Four years and six months after their first Test win, Bangladesh sealed a historic second victory when they beat West Indies by 95 runs in St Vincent. All the players found to be new in West Indies team as the experienced guys were not ready to play due to a problem with WICB. West Indies were in the commanding position as they were leading by 69 runs in the 1st innings. But by splendid performance of Bangladesh batsmen, they managed to reach 345 runs and set a target of 277 to the opposition. Tamim scored a fantastic 128 for Bangladesh and Sammy took 5 wickets for West Indies. West Indies made a good start, yet the spinners seal historic Bangladesh win. Bernard is the only batsman scored an unbeaten half century. The splendid performance of Mahmudullah (5-51) and Shakib (3-39) made sure of their victory. Now Bangladesh leads the series in the level 1-0.
