Windies skipper Nicholas Pooran beamed, after receiving both the Man of the Match and Man of the Series awards: “I definitely love Guyana and love performing here. I ask my players to trust me, even if they don't always like me.”NICHOLAS POORAN, the West Indies captain, guided his troops to a comfortable 35-run victory over Bangladesh to seal a 2-0 T20I series win on home soil.
The teams battled it out again at Windsor Park 24 hours later, with the West Indies blazing to a 35-run win to take the series lead. The difference was down to the economy of spinners, Trinidadian left-hander Akeal Hosein and leg breaks from Antiguan-American left Hayden Walsh Jr, who restricted the tourists to scoring just 22 runs off six overs from the midway point.
In the successful run chase, all rounders Mayers and Pooran – who both bat left-handed but bowl with their right – proved too hot to handle inside the Guyana National Stadium. Pooran found poise and placement to drum up his highly impressive innings off only 39 deliveries, as the Windies notched 169-5 with ten deliveries to spare to secure the T20I series 2-0.
