West Indies tour of Bangladesh, 2020-21

Tempted to give this a watch instead of England if West Indies can get through another session.

Chance of a lifetime here for these two. Winning in Bangladesh isn't anywhere near as easy as it was once these days.

129 from at least 33 overs. 7 wickets in hand.

I know my team quite well, we have made the collapse almost a cricketing art unto itself, but we have gotten ourselves into a position from which we shouldn't be able to lose.

Mayers and Bonner are having two of the best innings. Mayers checked his strokes in order to get to 100, then he played at a few and missed. He still only added some 20-odd runs in the entire session. Meanwhile Bonner has got to 50 and is eyeing a century himself.

130ish in the final session? Not impossible. About 4 an over. That can be done. I say go for it. We've got these two looking good, and Blackwood to come. If it comes to the point where da Silva is walking out, then unless we have less than 30 minutes to go, shut up shop and play for the draw. But by all means try to win first.

Bangladesh are missing Tamim and Shakib out there. Both give experience and Shakib would have added the bowling. Right now their attack is looking tired. Even Fizz isn't at his best and he's hardly had a bowl all game.

Looks like I'm watching at least part of the final session now. I was supposed to be asleep for 6 hours...where has that gone?

Rakheem can hit a few big shots if needed.

Amazing chase so far. Really hope they win to further put a dent into Bangladesh's arrogance with their pitch strategy.

Where I can watch this in India?

GOAT Test innings occurring from Mayers

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

10 more to go, they've got this in the bag.

 

[Yash.]

Damn! Windies... Never fail to surprise us.

 

[wasteyouryouth]

Holy moly! Missed it after they lost a couple of wickets.

 

[Aislabie]

Desperately annoying that I can't find a stream of it anywhere on the internet

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

Just one away from victory!

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

Uh oh. A hat trick away from a tie.

Aaaah!!! Victory for the WINDIES!

Has there been a better debut than the one Kyle Mayers has had? 210 not out in the fourth innings chasing down the highest run chase ever in Asia.

Remarkable win. Proved me wrong after expecting them to be following on.
