Bangladeshi bowlers delivered a remarkable performance to defend a modest total of 129 for 7, dismissing West Indies for 102. This earned them a 27-run victory in the second T20I and secured their first-ever T20I series win in the West Indies.
Bangladesh have won a T20I series against West Indies before, back in 2018 but two of the three T20Is which Bangladesh won to seal the series, were played in USA's Florida.
The hosts won the toss and sent Bangladesh into bat. Runs came slowly as the players struggled to hit boundaries..
