Match preview & overview
West Indies beat Bangladesh by 201 runs in North Sound Test
West Indies Cricket beat Bangladesh Cricket by 201 runs in the Test match played on 22 November 2024 at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound. West Indies batted first after Bangladesh won the toss and chose to field, posting 450/9 in their first innings. Bangladesh replied with 269/9. West Indies were then bowled out for 152 in their second innings, setting Bangladesh 334 to win. The visitors were dismissed for 132, and West Indies closed out victory with 201 runs to spare. JP Greaves was named player of the match.
Bangladesh's decision to field first looked questionable by the close of West Indies' first innings. A total of 450/9 was more than double the venue's average first-innings score of 203 across 70 Tests at this ground. By the time West Indies declared or were dismissed on 450, the match had effectively swung in one direction.
Taskin Ahmed gave Bangladesh a platform to defend, taking 8/140 across 40.2 overs in the match. It was the kind of individual effort that deserved more support. With the bat, though, Bangladesh could not hold on in either innings: 269 in the first and 132 in the fourth, a combined 401 runs against West Indies' 602.

Betting & analytical angles
Angles the data surfaced
- Top West Indies batter markets may reflect the depth of their first-innings scoring, given how far they exceeded the venue's average of 203 runs.
- Bangladesh's bowling workload, with Taskin Ahmed carrying a heavy share across 40-plus overs, could be a consideration in player performance markets for future fixtures in this series.
- The venue's chase success rate of 59% across 70 matches is above average for Test cricket, though Bangladesh's second-innings collapse suggests conditions can shift sharply across a match.
- With West Indies winning three of the last five head-to-head meetings and Bangladesh yet to string results together in recent tours, result markets in this fixture likely reflected the home side's advantage.
