It was supposed to be a low-key Test series. Bangladesh were overwhelming favourites. Now, after West Indies pulled off the highest chase in Asia to win the first Test by three wickets, the
the second match has suddenly become all the more important for the hosts.
In Chattogram, Windies defied all odds by chasing down a target of 395 with debutant Kyle Mayers hitting a fourth-innings double century. Now the onus is on Bangladesh.
The series is part of the inaugural ICC World Test Championship. But both the teams are already out of contention for the Lord's final. New Zealand have booked their place, while England, India and Australia are in contention.
