Jayden Seales’ clinical fast bowling spell, followed by a dominant batting performance led by Brandon King, led the West Indies to a lopsided seven-wicket win over Bangladesh yesterday, their first ODI series win over the Tigers in a decade .

With Alzarri Joseph rested, Man of the Match Seales tore through Bangladesh’s top order by taking the first three wickets and helping to bowl the visitors out for 227 in 45.5 overs after the West Indies dropped the toss won and chose to play at Warner Park.

King then top-scored with 82 from 76 balls as all of the Windies’ batters made solid contributions and the home side took three to 230 in 36.5 overs.

The result meant the West Indies took an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series, ending Bangladesh’s run of 11 consecutive ODI wins against them and giving them their first ODI series win against them since 2014.

The victory was set up by a stingy spell from Seales, who bowled a consistent line and length, causing numerous problems for the Bangladesh batsmen.

However, Bangladesh got off to a bright start as Tanzid Hasan gave debutant Marquino Mindley a tough start by hitting him with two sixes and a four in his second over for 18 runs, taking them to 26 runs after three overs without loss.

Seales struck with the first ball of the fourth over when he got Soumya Sarkar to chip straight into the hands of Gudakesh Motie in mid-on after scoring two runs.

Litton Das gained four runs off 19 balls before Seales took the lead with his intended pull and Evin Lewis took a fine catch diving forward at backward point to take the score to 41-2.

Seales then got the important wicket of captain Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who bowled a single from the inside edge as he tried to shoulder his arms outside the off-stump, resulting in Bangladesh slipping to 54 for three.

Tanzid Hasan hit pacer Justin Greaves twice in a row in his first over but slapped the next delivery straight into the hands of Roston Chase at back point and was out in the 11th over with 46 and a score of 64 for four.

Afif Hossain and Mahmudullah added 36 runs for the fifth wicket to take the total to 100, but spinner Gudakesh Motie accounted for both Hossain with 24 and Jaker Ali for three, and Mindley got his first international wicket by taking Rishad Hossain for a duck and Bangladesh were in even more trouble at 115 for seven.

It took a record-breaking eighth wicket partnership of 92 between Mahmudullah, who made 62 from 92 balls with four sixes and two fours, and Tanzim Hasan Sakib to help their side to a respectable total.

They took the score to 207 before Roston Chase caught Sakib and bowled for 45 and Seales returned to take the wicket of Mahmudullah and the innings ended soon after. Seales finished with 4-22 from his nine overs while Motie took 2-36 from 10 overs.

The West Indies then made light work of themselves as openers King and Lewis laid the foundation for a 109-run partnership.

King was the more dominant player of the pair and he added to his 52-ball half-century by smashing Rishan Hossain to the fine leg boundary to take the score to 88 without loss. And Lewis seemed determined to join him until he gave the same bowler the simplest return catch to lose his wicket for 49 after 62 balls.

Keacy Carty joined King at bat and the pair added 66 runs in eight overs to make the contest even tighter. However, King was bowled by pacer Nahid Rana, falling short of a century, while Carty scored 45 before being dismissed by Afif Hossain.

Captain Shai Hope and the in-form Sherfane Rutherford then led their side to victory in an unbroken 33 to seal the deal.
