Bangladesh beat West Indies by 7 wickets in the second ODI on Friday to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series. Bangladesh bowlers produced a collective performance to guide their team to a clinical win at Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka. Chasing a target of 149, Tamim Iqbal scored 50, while Shakib al Hasan remained unbeaten 43 runs as Bangladesh won the match in 33.2 overs.

West Indies are mostly without their key players as Jason Mohammed’s men failed to give a tough competition to the formidable Bangladesh team. Mehidy Hasan was the pick of the bowlers for hosts as he claimed a four-wicket haul to ran through Windies batting line-up. It was back to back poor performances from West Indies batters in the series as earlier they were restricted for just 122 runs in the first ODI at the same venue as Bangladesh won that game by 6 wickets.
