Bangladesh take on the West Indies in the 2nd Test of the West Indies Tour of Bangladesh, starting from Thursday, 5th November 2026 until Monday, 9th November at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, Sylhet. The scheduled start time is 10:00 AM IST.
Where they stand: Bangladesh are in 5th place on the World Test Championship points table with 47.6% PCT, having played 7 matches, winning three, losing three, and drawing one. Meanwhile, the West Indies are in 8th place with 26.920% PCT, having played 13 matches, winning two, losing 8, and drawing 3.
This is a crucial Test match for Bangladesh, as they have a good chance of making it to the top two. However, for that to happen, they need to win at least four of their next five Test matches. While the loss in the first Test dealt a blow to their chances, they are still within touching distance of qualification and will look to turn things around with a win here to level the series.
As far as the West Indies are concerned, they outplayed the home team with a brilliant bowling performance and will look to script history with an away series win, reviving their cricketing legacy in recent times and building momentum for the next series.
Head to Head Record: Bangladesh and West Indies faced off in 23 test matches till date, where West Indies won 16 matches, while Bangladesh won 5 and two ended in a draw.

Bangladesh were outplayed by the visitors and will be looking to seek redemption in the 2nd Test to level the series. This is a crucial match for Bangladesh after their batters faltered in the opening encounter.
Batting first in the first Test, they posted 272 all out in 97.4 overs. Shadman Islam opened the innings with a magnificent 105, Towhid Hridoy contributed 42, and Litton Das added 34. The rest of the batters got starts but threw their wickets away.
Their bowlers then responded well, bowling out the West Indies for 245 in 82.5 overs. Nayeem Hasan picked up four wickets, while Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Taijul Islam chipped in with two apiece. However, in their second innings, the batters failed to set a substantial target and folded for just 142. Nayeem Hasan, batting down the order, fought hard with a gritty half-century to stretch the lead past 150 runs, though it ultimately proved insufficient.
The West Indies chased down the target with ease, winning by eight wickets, as the Bangladesh spinners were unable to make a meaningful impact in the fourth innings. Still, with the opening loss behind them, the hosts face a must-win contest. Given their long-standing unbeaten home series record, they will be eager to bounce back strongly and finish the series tied at 1-1.

The West Indies are having a strong tour of Asia so far, playing hard-fought cricket against India and carrying that momentum directly into the Test series against Bangladesh. The victory marked only their second away Test win in two years.
Jomel Warrican set the game up in the first innings with a five-wicket haul, supported by Joshua Bishop and Shamar Joseph, who picked up two wickets each. Warrican followed that with four wickets in the second innings to finish the match with nine wickets overall, while skipper Roston Chase proved instrumental with a five-wicket haul of his own.
With the bat, John Campbell set the tone with scores of 54 and 49. Tagenarine Chanderpaul contributed 56, while the middle order saw solid contributions from Justin Greaves (49) and Chase (43). In the fourth-innings chase of 170, Brandon King led the way with a match-sealing knock of 81.
The West Indies have been clinical with the ball, their spinners outbowling their Bangladeshi counterparts through sharper guile, better accuracy, and superior adaptation to conditions. Backed by proactive batting in the fourth innings, they will aim to raise their standards further in the second Test to secure the series win.

Sylhet is expected to experience warm, predominantly dry, and sunny conditions from Thursday through Monday. Daytime highs will consistently hover between 31°C and 32°C, while overnight lows will settle comfortably around 21°C to 22°C. With minimal cloud cover and virtually no threat of rain, ideal conditions will prevail throughout the five-day period.
The surface at Sylhet International Stadium favours the bowlers and is a minefield for spinners, one of the toughest batting tracks to score runs. The average 1st innings score here is 270 runs, while it get's better for batting on day 2 and the average score goes upto 290 runs in the 2nd innings. The 3rd innings average score is 306 runs and it drops to 212 runs in the 4th innings, per innings on average 9.5 wickets are taken. Expect a moderate low scoring test which can max end in a span of 4 days.
Score Prediction (1st innings)
If Bangladesh Bat 1st: 250-300 runs
If West Indies Bat 1st: 200-250 runs
Teams batting first have won four of the six Test matches played at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium. The surface slows down and favours the spinners as the match progresses, making it tougher for batters to score runs on Day 4 and Day 5; therefore, setting a target is a preferred choice over chasing.
Toss Prediction: Bangladesh to win the coin toss
It is set to be an even contest between these two well-balanced sides. The West Indies carry momentum following their victory in the first Test, placing all the pressure squarely on the hosts. However, Bangladesh have the quality and home familiarity to bounce back in this fixture and level the series 1-1.
