West Indies National Cricket Team will be coming into the series on the back of the Test series loss against the South Africa

West Indies National Cricket Team will be coming into the series on the back of the Test series loss against the South Africa National Cricket Team. They faced a disappointing 0-1 series loss, having drawn the first game of the series.

On the other hand, the Bangladesh National Cricket Team have been enduring a tough phase in Test cricket. They faced a 2-0 series loss against India and, after that, were at the receiving end of a horrible outing against the South Africa National Cricket Team in the two-match Test series at home.

Bangladesh National Cricket Team suffered a seven-wicket defeat in the first Test and after that faced an innings and 273 runs thrashing. With both teams coming into the series after a loss, they would be keen to register wins. Both the teams are out of contention for the ICC World Test Championship but would want to win the series and give their fans something to cheer about.
