Tigers 43-all out with lowest total in Test cricket

Bangladesh were 43-all out in their first innings against West Indies and that’s the lowest ever total for Bangladesh in Test cricket.

Bangladesh only scored 43-run losing all wickets after Day 1’s 1st session of the first Test against West Indies at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium, North Sound, Antigua.

Tamim Iqbal managed to score 4 runs while Liton Das scored highest 25 runs with debutant Abu Jayed (7) for Bangladesh.

West Indies have won the toss and sent the visitors to bat first in the 1st Test of the two-match series being held at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium today.

24-year-old medium pace bowler Abu Jayed is going to make his debut as the 88th Test player for Bangladesh in the match while this game is the 13th Test meeting between the two nations since December 2002

Rubel Hossain and Kamrul Islam are also playing after more than a year for Bangladesh while the home side is playing with the same team that played in their last Test against Sri Lanka, with Shimron Hetmyer and Keemo Paul on the bench.

Sabbir Rahman, Abdur Razzak and Mustafizur Rahman aren’t a part of the Bangladesh team now when Shimron Heytmer, who missed the series against Sri Lanka due to illness, returns to the squad after hitting a century in the warm-up game.
