1st Test West Indies vs Bangladesh Match Preview

West Indies return to red-ball action after hosting England for a mixed limited-overs series. While they clinched the ODI series 2-1, their T20I campaign ended with a 1-3 defeat. Their last Test outing was against South Africa in August, and now they face Bangladesh, aiming to showcase their Test cricket prowess on home turf.

On the other hand, Bangladesh is arriving after a bumpy few months in international cricket. Losses in their ODI series against Afghanistan and a disappointing Test series at home against South Africa have left the Tigers hungry for redemption. But consistency has been their Achilles’ heel—can they find their rhythm in the Caribbean?
