West Indies Betting Analysis

Obed McCoy has a real knack of taking wickets in the T20 format and finished as West Indies’ top bowler in the first T20i. McCoy’s changes of pace can be extremely valuable and his four overs will be critical again here for the home side, so consider backing the 27-year-old to take 2+ wickets for the second game running across this series.

Bangladesh Betting Analysis

A star in the first T20i, Shak Mahedi Hasan ripped apart the hosts with the ball, taking four wickets including that from Nicholas Pooran and at just a 3.25 economy rate across his four allocated overs. On the same ground, Mahedi Hasan’s off-breaks may well wind up being ultra-effective again and backing him to take over 1.5 match wickets has to be favoured.

West Indies vs Bangladesh Expert Prediction

Expect a strong response by West Indies to falling behind, particularly from their top order, who under-performed significantly last time out but know what to expect from the Bangladesh bowling attack on this occasion. It would be no surprise to see them find run-scoring easier to come by here, especially having had a game to get back to grips with the format as a unit. Therefore, back the Windies to draw level against the Tigers.
