WI vs BAN Pitch Report: The West Indies cricket team is set to host the struggling Bangladesh in the second and last Test match at Sabina Park in Kingston, Jamaica starting on November 30. The hosts will look to seal the Test series win after an emphatic win in the first match in North Sound.
Kraigg Brathwaite's side overpowered the Bangla Tigers with a dominant bowling display from the fast bowlers in both innings in the first match. All-rounder Justin Greaves registered his maiden Test hundred to lead the Caribbean side to a huge 201-run win.
Bangladesh are likely to bring in the young speedster Nahid Rana in place of Shoriful Islam as the pitch at Sabina Park is likely to offer more pace with a new ball. The hosts are unlikely to tinker with their winning combination.
