Earlier in the match, sensational bowling performance from Kemar Roach ran through the weak Bangladesh batting. He bagged five for 33. The right-armer scythed though the middle order to send Bangladesh stumbling to the close of the second day at 104 for seven in their first innings, in reply to the West Indies’ 380 all out.
