Gone are the days when we used to call Bangladesh as minnows or an associate country in cricket. They have matured in all departments and they are now capable of beating all Test playing nations on any surface and at any time of the year. Their shift has been magnificent to watch over the last decade or so and they now host another series at home, where they seem to almost be unbeatable at times.
They’re hosting the once mighty West Indies and while you may say this team is slowly rebuilding, they’ve lost all of their last 5 ODIs to Bangladesh and with the home advantage going to the latter, it’s going to be a very tough outing indeed. It’s good to see though that many West Indies players left the Big Bash for this national assignment.

Bangladesh
While there are some more experienced players in this side, someone like the 22-year old Najmul Hossain Shanto is someone to watch out for with 2 fifties and a massive century (109) in the recent Bangabandhu T20 Cup 2020. After a very of being in the quiet, one of Bangladesh’s best is back in Shakib Al Hasan and after the most memorable 2019 World Cup that he had, he’s a good pick to be your BAN vs WI 1st ODI fantasy team captain or vice-captain.
Talking about all-round abilities, we have Soumya Sarkar in the side and he’s someone who has plenty of international experience. He had a couple of consecutive sixties in the recent national T20 Cup and he bowls a lot now too! With the ball, Mustafizur Rahman had the most amazing tournament with not a single wicketless game while Mohammad Saifuddin is another bowler who hasn’t gone wicketless in any of his last games across formats.
West Indies
Having made his international debut a decade ago, Jason Mohammed is super experienced and he’s leading the side for this ODI series. He’s got 3 fifties and 2 centuries in his last 10 games for Trinidad & Tobago across formats. Only 22 years old, wicket-keeper batsman Joshua Da Silva made his Test debut last year and impressed with a fifty against England, so he should be a part of your fantasy team as well.

Talking about international experience, Kyle Mayers recently made his in the T20 format after a successful CPL 2020 series. A hard hitting batsman who bowls a heavy ball too, this man should be in your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) fantasy team. We have another good selection in Alzarri Joseph who is among their best pacers and scored a Test fifty recently, so he can bat if required too as well.
