puffster: "Best young talent I've seen come out of West Indies in years. Got a lot of time for Bangladeshi Skip Mehedi - lovely player to watch. Looks like this is going to be a close game"

1.05pm We are all set for the resumption. A shortened break due to WI's slow over-rate. Not going to be easy for either side - 226 is that kind of middling total. How will WI approach this target though? The Bangladesh players huddle up and enter the field. WI's openers follow. Pope and Imlach. Mehedi Hasan's offbreaks will start the innings, a slip in place. Let's go.
Ganesh Tiwari: "I am not satisfied with how Windies used the bowlers.... They had a lot of talent in the pace department.But, they strangled with the spin.... Bdesh can defend this total, maybe.... A good Windies start will create pressure on Bdesh."
