A non-favorite West Indies created history at home pitch of Bengal-Tigers. Really it was wonderful bowling by top-order of West Indies for an ODI at Mirpur stadium. Skipper Darren Sammy, Roach and the tall left-arm spinner Suleiman Benn accounted for all the Bangladesh wickets. In first match against India in Group B match at the same pitch, Bangladesh scored 283/10 runs, replying India’s score 370/7. West Indies swept out Bangladesh at the lowest of 58, in this World Cup, just in 18.5 overs. It was a day-night game but the lights didn’t need to flash on. Only two of Bangladesh batsmen Left handed Junaid Siddique and Mohammad Ashraful could reach double figures. Viewers in this cricket crazy nation could not controlled their emotional feelings and West Indies players bus was stoned when they were going to hotel, but no one injured. West Indies inflicted heavy wounds on the face of Bangladeshi.
