West Indies will bounce back against Bangladesh, reckons Darren Sammy - Cricket News Update
West Indian skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/DJG-Sammy-c1382, remains upbeat about his team’s performance even after suffering a three-wicket defeat in the solitary Twenty20 match against Bangladesh, played at Shere Bangla National Stadium Mirpur, on Tuesday,
October 11, 2011.
Sammy reckons that the West Indies team will regroup and bounce back in the series. The skipper of the Caribbean team has urged his side to improve by overcoming their weaknesses.
Insisting that the series is wide open, Sammy said, “This is the start of the tour, so we will regroup and come back. We have three one-dayers and two Test matches, so there is a lot to play for. We will look at the areas where
we went wrong and lift our game for the upcoming matches.”
Bangladesh bowlers were able to restrict West Indies to a modest total of 132 runs; however, the Caribbean’s did not lose hope and fought till the end. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Marlon-Nathaniel-Samuels-c74804 was the top performer for the tourists, the all-rounder put
on 58 runs and grabbed two crucial wickets, that of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shakib-Al-Hasan-c89559.
Lavishing praise on Samuels, Sammy said, “It was good to see the way Marlon performed. He is playing very well at the moment and is doing his bit with the bat and ball.”
Samuels' efforts went in vain as the newly appointed skipper of Bangladesh, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mushfiqur-Rahim-c2045, guided his side to victory in 19.5 overs. The wicket-keeper batsman smashed 41 runs from 26 deliveries which included two sixes and one
four.
Heaping praise on the Bangladeshi skipper, Sammy said, “Hats off to Mushfiqur. He played well and took it from us. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Bangladesh-c747 are a good team and they held their nerve better than we did. It was going to be an interesting series.
We saw a exciting match which went down to the wire.”
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/West-Indies-c760 are scheduled to play three ODI’s matches during their tour of Bangladesh. The first game of the three match series will be played at Shere Bangla National Stadium Mirpur, on Thursday, October 13, 2011.
The head to head records of both teams are in favour of West Indies, as the Caribbean side has won 12 games from a total of 17 played against Bangladesh.
