Bangladesh team is eyeing to whitewash the Carinnbeans as Third-day play of second and final Test starts with the visitors in a risk to face follow-on at the Shere Bangla National Stadium on Sunday (Dec 2).

In reply to Bangladesh’s 508 in the first innings, West Indies top five batsmen were bowled out by Skipper Shakib Al Hasan and Mehidy Miraz setting a new record in the process as it was first that first five batters were bowled to spinners

West Indies started the 3rd day with 75/5 on the scorecard.

Bangladesh is looking to wrap things up quickly while West Indies’ will try to somehow avoid follow-on, although it looks almost certain.

Win by the Tigers in the second and final test will be a sweet revenge for the Bangladeshis as they lost a Test series against Windies earlier this year.
