Bangladesh vs West Indies 2nd ODI | Top Match Bets

Bangladesh and West Indies will meet again for their 2nd ODI of a three-match series at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka on Friday, January 22.

While Bangladesh defeated the visitors at their homeground earlier in the 1st ODI held at Dhaka, the teams are to meet again for the 2nd ODI to be played at the same venue. The homeside won by 6 wickets in the first ODI match held this season, but West Indies certainly did not make it easy for them. After a long hiatus, since international cricket has resumed in Bangladesh the host is all set to face-off against their opponents. With Bangladesh completing a stunning chase in the opening match, I have collated the top winning bets from the market with the best odds, to get your money flowing in the game.

Bangladesh To Win the Match

Let's look at my first bet, Bangladesh is a definite winner here. With the return of Shakib al Hasan, the Man of the Match in the first ODI series helped ease past West Indies in the opening ODI. Also considering the last four matches held at home, Bangladesh won three out of the four matches. To put it this way, Bangladesh has always had an upper hand while playing in their home ground. That was the case with the first ODI series held this season as well, as the host beat the visitors at their backyard. It is Bangladesh's 6th win in a row against their opposition. The highest that a West Indies batsman scored in the last match was by Kyle Mayers hitting a 40 runs from 56 balls while the Bangladesh captain, Tamim Iqbal hammered a 44 runs with seven boundaries. In the last five matches against West Indies, Bangladesh won by 7 wickets, 5 wickets, 5 wickets, 8 wickets and another 8 wickets simultaneously. So it is fair to say that Bangladesh stands a better chance of winning against their opponent in the forthcoming match. Sportsbet.io has offered odds of 1.21 for Bangladesh to win the match.

Bangladesh To Hit The Most Match 4's

With both the teams having hard hitters on their team, they have been scoring big boundaries as noticed in the earlier games. Bangladesh averages 22 four per game from their last five matches while West Indies averages 17.2 fours per game in terms of the same number of matches played. Bangladesh has hit a total of 110 fours in the last five matches while West Indies has hit a total of 86 fours. Players like Shakib Al Hasan who has gone to the extent of hitting 16 boundaries in one of the five matches played, is considered to be the highest boundaries hit in a match earlier. Not to forget West Indies player, Shai Hope who hit 12 big boundaries in one of the five matches played. But playing in their homeground Bangladesh would always have a better understanding of the pitch, as the last time they faced the Windies, Bangladesh hit a total of 21 boundaries and the West Indies managed hitting a total of 14 fours.LeoVegas.com has offered odds of 1.60 for Bangladesh to hit the most match fours.

Bangladesh To Get The Highest Opening Partnership

My last bet will again run in favour of Bangladesh after looking at their past statistics. Let me back my claims here with proper data. Sunil Ambris and Joshua De Silva who were the opening batsman for West Indies this season scored a total of 9 runs together whereas Liton Das and captain, Tamim Iqbal who opened for Bangladesh had a partnership of 47 runs in the opening match. Bangladesh has an impressive opening partnership average of 70.8 with 354 runs from the last 5 matches played against West Indies while West Indies averages 58.2 with 291 runs from the same number of matches played against the host. This clearly shows how Bangladesh has outdone the Windies in the past and might continue to do the same in the future games. West Indies managed to score higher than Bangladesh in only one of the five matches and Bangladesh scored higher than West Indies in the last two matches they faced.LeoVegas.com has offered odds of 1.60 for Bangladesh to have the highest opening partnership.
