Bangladesh is off to a strong start against the West Indies in their third match of the Super 12s stage of the T20 World Cup on Friday at Sharjah.
Mahedi Hasan bagged two wickets in his first three overs conceding only 11 runs while Mustafizur Rahman scalped one wicket removing Evin Lewis in his first over.
West Indies lost Chris Gayle, Lewis and Shimron Hetmyer inside eight overs of their innings for 39 runs.
Bangladesh made two changes to their playing XI including Soumya Sarkar and Taskin Ahmed to replace Nurul Hasan Sohan and Nasum Ahmed.
Nurul had been suffering from an injury, and Nasmu was rested.
Bangladesh lost the first two matches of the Super 12s stage, and West Indies have also lost their first two matches.
So this match came as a chance for both the teams to keep their Semi-finals dream alive.
Bangladesh took on the West Indies in 13 T20Is before and won five of them.
West Indies have won two T20 World Cups while Bangladesh are yet to register a win in the Super 12s stage.
