Bangladesh skipper Mashrafe Bin Mortaza says that there was a lot to improve upon despite admitting that the 2-1 ODI series win away from home against the West Indies was a good achievement.

Buoyed by a century from Tamim Iqbal, some good bowling and work in the field coupled with the West Indies' struggles in the middle overs, Bangladesh secured a somewhat nervy 18-run win in the series-deciding ODI in Basseterre to seal a 2-1 win yesterday.

Bangladesh skipper Mashrafe Bin Mortaza says that the Tigers are not learning from their mistakes as they once again lost a close game against West Indies and failed to secure a series win in Guyana.

Bangladesh skipper Mashrafe Bin Mortaza won the toss and sent West Indies in to bat in the second one-day international (day/night) at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on Wednesday as the Tigers looked to seal their second ODI series win against West Indies in the Caribbean following their 48-run win in the first ODI on Sunday.

After a bleak Test series, Bangladesh have a golden opportunity today to wrap up the three-match ODI series against West Indies in favourable conditions in Guyana.

One stat hints at Tamim Iqbal's importance to Bangladesh cricket -- of his 10 ODI centuries, seven have come in winning causes. His performance during his most recent century, the 160-ball 130 that set up Bangladesh's 48-run win over West Indies in Sunday's first ODI, holds ample evidence of why the team's success is often allied with Tamim's.

A common theme running through most analyses of Bangladesh's sharp reversal in performance to outplay West Indies in Sunday's first ODI in Guyana has been the change in format from Tests to ODIs, which the Tigers are much more comfortable with.

Mashrafe Bin Mortaza, Bangladesh’s inspirational captain, led the charge with the ball in hand, bagging four wickets for 37 runs from 10 overs to ensure Tigers’ first competitive fixture victory in the West Indies tour as they beat the hosts by 48 runs in the first ODI at Guyana.

Following a disastrous two-Test series against West Indies, the Bangladesh team will regain some confidence after securing a four-wicket win in a day-night fifty-over warm-up game against UWI Chancellor's XI at Sabina Park on Thursday.

After two days and a session of mediocrity, the Bangladesh cricket team succumbed to an innings and 219-run defeat in the first Test against West Indies in Antigua yesterday. Rookie wicketkeeper-batsman Nurul Hasan scored 64 on the third morning, but it could not avert a capitulation of 144 all out shortly before lunch at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium.
