DHAKA: West Indies white washed visiting Bangladesh by wining all three matches of ODI series.

On the last match, West Indies scored 338 losing seven wickets in stipulated 50 overs and Bangladesh managed to score 247 for 8 wickets in 50 overs. 

Denesh Ramdin and DM Bravo scored centuries respectively with 169 and 124 to lead the team to a better target. R Rampaul bagged four wickets.

While Bangladesh Captain Mushfiqur Rahim scored 72 runs, Mahmudullah, Nasir and Sohag Gazi scored 27, 26 and 24 runs respectively. Al Amin got four wickets.

Denesh Ramdin was selected as the Man of the Match for his 169 runs. 

Mushfiqur Rahim said “I thought they bowled really well up front (Bangladesh), but the way they scored 300 it was always going to be difficult. I thought they were too good on the day. There is a lot of work to be done before the T20 as we need to come up with some good plans for these short boundaries and big hitters. I thought Anamul played really well in the first match, and then Tamim really played well today.”

West Indies captain Dwayne Bravo said, “It is a great team effort. Happy to win this series 3-0. Congratulations to the entire team, the management, all the other guys. 3-0 is a better result than 2-1. Special congrats for Darren Bravo and Denesh Ramdin on their hundreds today. The guys are hungry for success and that is very important. When we sit down to discuss our team plans we have always discussed how important it is to be consistent and to play the brand of cricket that we are capable of. We now look forward to the T20 game, and we hope to come with the same attitude. Not much is going to change as we are hungry for success. We want to keep putting on a good team effort going forward. We look forward to great things ahead.”
