The West Indies whitewashed Bangladesh 3-0 in the three-match T20I series after winning the final encounter by five wickets on Friday, October 31, at the Bir Shreshho Flight Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium.
Bangladesh won the toss and opted to bat first after failing to chase down totals in the first two matches. Parvez Hossain Emon and Litton Das were dismissed for single-digit scores, but Tanzid Hasan played a brilliant innings, single-handedly keeping Bangladesh in the fight. Tanzid was dropped by Jason Holder at mid-off in the third over, when he was batting on 12. The southpaw made the most of the reprieve.
Saif Hassan added a 63-run partnership off 43 balls with Tanzid, setting up a great foundation for Bangladesh to make the most of the death overs. However, from 107/2 in the 15th over, Bangladesh were bowled out for 151. Tanzid finished with a career-best T20I score of 89 off 62 balls. Romario Shepherd was the pick of the bowlers, bagging a hat-trick.
