23:03 hrs IST: That's it. Thank you for joining us! 

Shakib Al Hasan, Player of the Match: "It feels great. To stay at the wicket till the end was the most satisfying thing. I have been working on batting for the last one and a half months, and it has paid off. At the end of the first innings, we believed that if we bat well we can win. It was a reasonable total posted by the West Indies. Not sure why I backed myself for the No. 3 spot (laughs), but I thought if I batted at No. 3, I will get more opportunities and more time in the middle. If I bat at 5, I will get in at the 30th over or something, and that's not ideal for me honestly. Mehidy contributed with the ball. I have contributed with the ball too, but I think I can get better than this. We have to bring our A-game against Australia at the top of their form. I hope the fans will keep supporting us, and they have been magnificent throughout the World Cup."

Kris Srikkanth: "Everyone knows how good a batsman Rohit Sharma is but for me the more important innings against Pakistan was from KL Rahul. Going into the game, the biggest question mark about this India team was how they would cope without Shikhar Dhawan. The fact the top three all got runs, that Sharma and Rahul put on more than a hundred for the first wicket and that Virat Kohli got more runs, is huge for India going forward in the tournament."

15:20 hrs IST: Excellent over from Saifuddin, a wicket-maiden. West Indies are 6/1 after 4 overs. Both batsmen need to be cautious here.

14:05 hrs IST: WHAT THEY SAID - 

Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Mortaza: "We still have five matches left. So you never know. You don't have to think [about] all those five matches. Tomorrow's match is very important. We have to take one by one. It's been ups and downs. But still a lot of matches left. We can make the difference. And we have to believe in it, which I believe that my team is believing."

West Indies skipper Jason Holder: "I don't want to sit here and try to perceive what they would come with, but we're open to anything. Traditionally they rely heavily on their spinners. We don't expect them to move too far away from it. It's a smallish ground. I saw the wicket today as well. There's quite a bit of grass on it. We'll see how it plays. But we know what we're expecting in a sense from Bangladesh. And I can't see them being much different from that."

13:51 hrs IST: Bangladesh are hopeful Mushfiqur Rahim will be able to take part after X-ray and MRI scans gave him all-clear following a scare in the nets. The wicketkeeper-batsman was hit on the hand by a delivery from team-mate Mustafizur Rahman but was "totally fine" on Sunday, according to captain Mashrafe Mortaza.

13:42 hrs IST: BIG NUMBER - Bangladesh have lost their last two completed World Cup matches and have not lost three in a row in the same World Cup since 2007.

13:35 hrs IST: STAT ATTACK - Shakib Al Hasan requires 23 more runs to become the second player to score 6,000 ODI runs for Bangladesh, joining Tamim Iqbal who stands on 6,695.

13:30 hrs IST: Hello and welcome to Outlook's live coverage of the ICC World Cup 2019 game between two-time champions West Indies and Bangladesh. 

Bangladesh beat West Indies as many as three times in a tri-series that Ireland hosted ahead of the World Cup.

Bangladesh, who last played on June 8 when they lost to England, will be itching to take the field after a forced break of one week with their match against Sri Lanka called off due to rain.

For West Indies, their batsmen need to click as a unit. The roles of Shai Hope and Nicholas Pooran will be vital in such a scenario. Shimron Hetmyer has shown glimpses of what he can do but hasn’t got a big score. Most of their batsmen seem to be in T20 mode while playing 50-over cricket.

"Our batters needed to take more ownership and form a few more partnerships. We needed to dig in deep and need to correct it. It has happened twice in two games now. We misread the wicket in terms of pace and didn't get the short balls high enough. Were a bit erratic as well," Windies skipper Jason Holder had said after the loss to England last week.

Two-time World Cup-winning forme West Indian captain Clive Lloyd feels 11 points will probably be enough to get a team into the top four, and considering West Indies still have the likes of New Zealand and India to play, it is now or never for Holder's team.

"There is a lot of power in that batting line-up but maybe we are missing someone who can stick around. In my day we had Larry Gomes who could play that role," Lloyd wrote recently.
