Bangladesh win by 74 runs as West Indies collapse in Dhaka ODI

Bangladesh Cricket beat West Indies Cricket by 74 runs in an ODI at Shere Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka on 18 October 2025. Bangladesh posted 207 all out after being put in to bat, a total 28 runs above the venue's average first-innings score of 179. West Indies responded well initially, reaching 45 for 0 at the end of the powerplay, but collapsed entirely through the middle overs. All 10 remaining wickets fell in overs 11 to 40, leaving West Indies 133 all out. Rishad Hossain was named Player of the Match for his role in that collapse.

The result reverses a run of three consecutive West Indies wins against Bangladesh in 2025, all of which had come at Bir Shreshtho Flight Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium. Bangladesh's home record at Shere Bangla has been a consistent advantage, and this match reinforced that. West Indies, who also tied with Bangladesh at this ground earlier in 2025, have now won 43 of the 84 ODI meetings between the sides, while Bangladesh have won 36.

For Bangladesh, the innings was built in the middle overs. After a careful powerplay of 33 for 2, they accumulated 107 runs for 2 wickets between overs 11 and 40, then pushed hard at the death despite losing 6 wickets for 67 runs. The total was competitive. As it turned out, it was more than enough.

Moments the match hinged on

5 angles

Headline angle

Bangladesh post 207 on a below-par surface

Bangladesh's 207 all out came in above the venue's average first-innings score of 179 across 469 matches at Shere Bangla. The middle overs did the heavy lifting: 107 runs for 2 wickets between overs 11 and 40 gave the innings its spine after a cautious powerplay of 33 for 2.

Angle 02

West Indies lose 10 wickets in the middle overs

West Indies reached the middle phase on 45 for 0 after a decent powerplay, but then collapsed dramatically. All 10 of their remaining wickets fell in the middle overs, leaving nothing for the death phase: 0 runs and 0 wickets from overs 41 onwards tells the story of a chase that ended well short.

Angle 03

Rishad Hossain wins Player of the Match

Rishad Hossain was Bangladesh's standout performer and collected the Player of the Match award. His contribution came at the most decisive phase of the game, helping dismantle a West Indies middle order that had looked threatening after a strong powerplay.

Angle 04

Toss winner chose to field and lost

West Indies won the toss and elected to field, a reasonable call at a venue where 59 per cent of toss winners choose to field. Shere Bangla has a chase success rate of 54 per cent, so the decision was defensible. Bangladesh's 207, however, proved well beyond a West Indies batting unit in poor touch.

Angle 05

Head-to-head swings back toward Bangladesh

West Indies had won three consecutive meetings against Bangladesh in 2025 before this match, all at Bir Shreshtho Flight Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium. Bangladesh's win in Dhaka reverses that run and brings their overall record in the series to 36 wins from 84 meetings, against West Indies' 43.

Betting & analytical angles

Angles the data surfaced

Observations from the venue data, recent form and historical trends. Editorial context, not betting advice.

  • Top wicket-taker markets may be of interest given how heavily the middle overs influenced this result: 10 of West Indies' wickets fell in overs 11 to 40.
  • Bangladesh's spinners have historically performed well at Shere Bangla, so bowling performance markets could be worth examining in any repeat fixture here.
  • The venue's chase success rate of 54 per cent across 469 matches makes toss-related markets somewhat unpredictable; the toss winner lost this match despite fielding first.
  • Top Bangladesh batter markets may attract attention given the home side's 207 came in significantly above the venue's average first-innings score of 179.
