After a dominant win against the Bangladesh Women, the West Indies Women are all set to take them for the 2nd ODI on January 21 at 11:30 PM. The match is scheduled at Warner Park in Basseterre where Bangladesh will look to salvage the series with a 1-1 leveller.

West Indies Women

West Indies Women dominated both with the bat and the ball in the series opener. Restricting Bangladesh to a modest 198, skipper Hayley Kristen Matthews and Qiana Joseph rode their team to a swift chase, wrapping the game within 31.4 overs. 

Deandra Dottin was exceptional with the ball with her figures of 3-40 and Aaliyah Alleyne's 2-22 added to Bangladesh's struggle with the bat. With the potential series decider scheduled for January 21, Windies Women would like to wrap the series early with a 2-0.

Bangladesh Women

Bangladesh Women was not impressive with the ball as the Windies skipper dialled a destructive ton to outfox the Bangladesh bowlers. With the bat too, only Murshida Khatun and Sharmin Akhter made significant contributions with the rest of the team falling to the Windies attack.

The 2nd ODI will be a high-stakes clash for Bangladesh as it will be their only chance to level the series and drag the decider to the third match. With potential aggressive batters and skilled bowlers in the lineup, Bangladeshi Women are expected to put up a tough game against West Indies.

How Will The Warner Park Pitch Will Behave?

The Warner Park pitch offers favourable conditions for bowlers with the new ball, particularly during the initial overs, as it provides good movement and bounce. Batters can still find opportunities to score runs, while both pace bowlers and spinners can exploit the playing conditions. As the match advances, spinners are expected to see some turn. Given these factors, the captain who wins the toss may choose to bowl first to take advantage of the early movement and gain control of the game.
