West Indies

Windies beat struggling England

Chasing a token target of 28 in their second innings, West Indies reached it without loss, captain Kraigg Brathwaite hitting the winning runs to seal a 1-0 series triumph.

It was a stunning result for the home team after being outplayed in the first two drawn tests, and ensured another barren England trip to the Caribbean.

England have only one series win in the West Indies in the past half-century, a 3-0 victory in 2003-04.

With the ecstatic home fans dancing in the stands, the England players shook hands with Brathwaite and John Campbell.

Shakib Al Hasan inspires Bangladesh to win over West Indies

When West Indies surged to post 321-8, they knew every team making 300-plus batting first had won in this World Cup, eight times out of eight.

But Bangladesh treated the fact like fluff on a shirt, flicking it off as they strolled to 322-3 to win with 51 balls to spare.

Shakib Al Hasan starred in the comeback with 124 not out, his second successive century in the tournament, and Liton Das added 94 not out in his World Cup debut. They combined for an unbeaten 189 in 22.3 overs, receiving plenty of bad deliveries to treat ruthlessly.

Captain Darren Sammy said there were a lot of off-field issues and people were wondering whether they would play the tournament.

"We felt disrespected by our board, Mark Nicholas [a commentator] described our team as a team with no brains. All these things before the tournament just brought this team together."
