West Indies are the favourites to win this match.

The hosts, West Indies, will start as favorites. The team performed admirably against England, winning the series 1-0. Even though the bowling appears to be a little shaky, the batters have been in good form. If they can neutralize Bangladesh’s spinners, they have a good chance of scoring a big total and batting Bangladesh out of the game. The visitors are an experienced team that has previously surprised teams away from home. They recently defeated New Zealand in New Zealand, so they should not be underestimated. We believe it will be a close series, but the West Indies have home advantage and are the favorites to win.
