However, opener Anamul Haque and skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mushfiqur-Rahim-c2045 buckled down to share an unbeaten three-digit stand for the third wicket to put the side back on track. At the end of the 25th over, Anamul was not out on 62, while Rahim was two runs short of his 11th ODI half century.
Earlier the West Indies skipper Darren Sammy won his second toss in as many games, and this time decided to bowl first at the Abu Naser Stadium. The Windies faced a seven wicket crushing in the opening game at the same venue on Friday, when their 199 all out was comfortably chased down by the hosts inside 41 overs.

The tourists have made one change to their squad from the first ODI, brining in the all-rounder http://www.senore.com/Cricket/KAJ-Roach-c1758. Bangladesh on the other hand have fielded an unchanged line-up.
