Years of dedication and hard work has reaped the fruits of performance for Jaker Ali in the just-concluded West Indies tour where the wicketkeeper-batter impressed with the willow in all three formats, playing a key role in Bangladesh completing a 3-0 sweep over the hosts in the T20I series yesterday.
A career-best 72 not out off 41 balls from Jaker Ali catapulted Bangladesh to a commanding 80-run win over West Indies in the third and final T20I in St Vincent yesterday, a victory that confirmed the Tiger’s maiden 3-0 clean-sweep over the Caribbean side in the shortest format.
After defeating West Indies by seven runs in a nail-biting first T20I yesterday, Bangladesh now stand with a chance of winning their first T20I series over the Caribbean side in over six years when both teams face off in the second game of the three-match series on Wednesday.
Mahedi Hasan's career-best bowling performance and some sharp bowling in the death overs earned Bangladesh a seven-run win over West Indies in the first T20I of the three-match series at the Arnos Vale Ground in Kingstown, St Vincent today.
The match is scheduled to start at 06:00 am [Monday] Bangladesh time and will be telecast live on T Sports.
The series will begin with the first Test in Antigua, starting on November 22 and followed by the second Test in Jamaica, commencing on November 30.
