Bangladesh go with one pacer, four spinners in dead rubber match

Tamim Iqbal won the toss and Bangladesh will bowl first in the third and final One-Day International (ODI) against West Indies at the Providence Stadium in Guyuna on Saturday.

The Tigers will play with just one pacer in the playing XI, as they dropped left-arm pacer Shoriful Islam for left-arm spinner Taijul Islam.

Top-order batsman Anamul Haque, who broke a world record in List-A competition just few months back, wasn’t picked for the dead rubber match.

Bangladesh already have an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series with wins in the first two ODIs of the three-match series.

Bangladesh has won all 10 of their last ODIs against West Indies and have a chance to extend that number to 11.
