KHULNA, Bangladesh: Bangladesh captain Mushfiqur Rahim hopes his team can bounce back to win the second and final Test against the West Indies starting tomorrow after snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in the first.
The home team had raised hopes of an upset win in Dhaka by setting up a modest victory target of 245 runs following a stunning bowling performance of 6-74 by debutant off-spinner Sohag Gazi.
But a customary second innings batting failure ended landed them a 77-run defeat.
Rahim said Bangladesh achieved some positives despite their defeat.
“Ahead of the Test match, our concerns were about lasting the five days,” said Rahim. AFP
