Both Bangladesh and West Indies will be keen to win the upcoming series to gain vital ranking points to secure automatic qualification for the 2027 World Cup. West Indies failed to qualify for the previous edition of the World Cup, and they will certainly know the importance of winning the series.
Things have not been good for West Indies in recent times and they will look to make a fresh start in the upcoming series. They recently lost a T20I series against Nepal before losing to India in the two-match Test series.

In all three matches, their batsmen failed to make an impact and were out for 221, 109 and just 93 runs. Bangladesh batsmen will be desperate to improve in the upcoming series against West Indies.
