Bangladesh Playing XI vs West Indies – 1st T20I, West Indies tour of Bangladesh 2025:
Openers: Tanzeed Hasan Tamim, Parvez Hussain Emon
Bangladesh will be looking to carry on the home team’s momentum with a win in the first T20I against the same opposition in the three-match ODI series against the West Indies.
For that to happen, Bangladesh will be dependent on their batsmen to perform brilliantly as they did in the final ODI, which was also the series decider, as the Mehidy Hasan Miraz-led side registered a resounding win over the visitors.
The hosts have a powerful batting lineup that includes a good mix of young and experienced batsmen, who will be eager to show what they are capable of in this format of the game.
As always, the responsibility of giving the team a good start in the first six overs will be on the openers and the opening pair of Tanzeed Hasan Tamim and Pervez Hussain Amon will be entrusted with this task.,
Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Saif Hasan, Liton Das (captain and wicketkeeper), Tauheed Hridoy, Shamim Hussain, Nasum Ahmed, Rishad Hussain.
The openers will also hope that the middle-order batsmen will take advantage of the platform created by them and help the Tigers score at least 180-190 runs, thereby increasing the team’s chances of victory and taking a 1-0 lead.
The middle order, although less experienced at the international level, has been playing together for the last two to three years, especially in white-ball cricket, and is expected to perform well in the opening match of the series.
The middle order, which includes names like Tauheed Hridayoy, Shamim Hossain, will be boosted by the return of captain Liton Das, who was not a part of the last T20I series against Afghanistan.,
Bangladesh can play with a fearless approach, given that Riszad Hossain, who will in all likelihood bat at number eight, is also capable of hitting the ball out of the park.
Bowlers: Tanzeem Hasan Shakib, Shoriful Islam Mustafizur Rahman
It is the bowling that makes the host team a strong contender for victory in the first T20 match against West Indies.
This is due to the performance of the bowlers in the recently concluded ODI series against the same opponents, most of whom are also part of the T20I squad.
Their spin bowling arsenal includes names like Rishad Hussain and Nasum Ahmed, both of whom have been in good form of late, and they will be assisted by Shamim Hussain as a spin bowling all-rounder.,
Along with the spinners, the Tigers will also be backing their fast bowlers to perform well in the upcoming match, as the team has a good mix of youth and experience in the fast bowling with Tanzeem Hasan Shakib, Shoriful Islam and Mustafizur Rahman.
