Bangladesh A take on West Indies in second

 DHAKA, May 22, 2023 (BSS)- In quest of a victory, the Bangladesh A team will take on West Indies A tomorrow (Tuesday) in the second unofficial Test at Sylhet Academy Cricket Ground.

    The three-match series opening unofficial Test ended in a draw after the visitors dominated the game largely. The rain however denied the second string West Indies the victory as it ate up most of the time of the four-day match.

    After the first two days were severely hit by rain, West Indies declared the first innings on 427-7. Bangladesh however failed to overcome follow-on, being all out for 264.

    Desperate for the victory, West Indies A enforced follow-on but Bangladesh A survived the last day and put up 187-7 to draw the game from the knife-edge of the defeat.
