Another dismal performance by the West Indian batsmen as they surrendered themselves in front of the Bangladeshi spinners in the second test match day 1. They were bundled out for a small total of 237. this has provided the Bangladeshi batsmen to further increase the pressure and tighten their grip on the match. After trailing in this series, the West Indies team is under a great pressure to save the test match.

Sorry I am a bit late on this discussion, but the spinners bowled really well. Their captain Shakib Al Hasan led the way with the ball, and the new guy (sorry forgot his name) who made his debut in the first test also well. A good win for Bangladesh. Unfortunately people will just say that the West Indies team was weak. I think even the regular squad would have had trouble with the spinners.

Yes, real bad performance by the windies side. But keep in mind that none of their key players are playing the match. The WI cricket board must settle all these issues or else they would face more embarrassing episodes like this. Nevertheless, moments of pride for the Bangladeshi team, and if they could win this series, it would be a real achievement. It would be history.
