1st Test: West Indies v Bangladesh at Kingstown

West Indies were always Favorite going  into this match They have a good lineup of bowlers right now. So I am not surprised to see them in trouble.

It is great to see the windies dominate Bangladesh like this. The asian perennial under achievers had high hopes of winning the series when they first got here but this time they have encountered a switched on West Indies team.

The commentators were a bit critical of Ramdin's field placing, when he was offering a single to one of the tail enders, but I think his captaincy has been incisive.


Managed the bowling well with Gabriel clawing his way back.


I see no reason for the follow on not to be enforced as mentally the Bangladeshi's would be down, if not out. The seamers have bowled on average 14 overs so they should be fresh and ready...

Enforce the follow on ..... while I feel sorry for Bangladesh ......... it's still minnows vs minnows !!!...... Go for it WI !!!

Banglas are in a pathetic situation and shakib's ban is affecting them very badly.The balance of the team is in a terrible situation.
