Toss West Indies chose to bat v Bangladesh
West Indies chose to bat in the first game of the five-match ODI series
against Bangladesh. Their squad for the limited-overs contests has been
modified. Lendl Simmons will open the batting, Devon Thomas will keep
wicket, allrounder Andre Russell comes back and so does Kemar Roach, who
missed the Test series against Bangladesh due to injury.
Bangladesh had four ODI debutants for this game. Abul Hasan made an
impact on Test debut, scoring a century in Khulna, and offspinner Sohag
Gazi had an excellent start to his Test career in Mirpur, where he took
nine wickets. Batsmen Mominul Haque and Anamul Haque, who can also fill
in as a wicketkeeper, were picked in the side as well.
West Indies: 1 Chris Gayle, 2 Lendl Simmons, 3 Marlon Samuels, 4
Darren Bravo, 5 Kieron Pollard, 6 Darren Sammy (capt), 7 Devon Thomas
(wk), 8 Andrew Russell, 9 Sunil Narine, 10 Kemar Roach, 11 Ravi Rampaul.
Bangladesh: 1 Tamim Iqbal, 2 Anamul Haque, 3 Naeem Islam, 4
Mushfiqur Rahim (capt and wk), 5 Mahmudullah, 6 Mominul Haque, 7 Nasir
Hossain, 8 Mashrafe Mortaza, 9 Sohag Gazi, 10 Abul Hasan, 11 Abdur
Razzak.
