Bangladesh Whitewashed West Indies in ODI Series

Bangladesh made a clean sweep of the Digicel One Day International Series, with a comprehensive three wicket win in the Third Digicel ODI at Warner Park. Mahmudullah Riad – who has been a revelation on the Caribbean trip for the visitors – guided the team to victory and remained unbeaten on 51 at the end, to secure the Man of the Match award which comes with a Blackberry Storm from Digicel.

Opener, Junaid Siddique, laid the foundation of the run chase with 55 from 73 deliveries, inclusive of six uncompromising fours.

After the initial flourish – and for the first time in the Digicel ODI Series – the Bangladesh middle order buckled, leaving them on 133 for 5, before Mahmudullah took charge with able assistance from wicketkeeper Mushfiqur Rahim (31) and Naeem Islam (26).

Bangladesh, for the first time in their history, has a perfect win record on a tour. They won both the Digicel Tests and now all three of the Digicel ODIs.
