Another poor outing with the bat saw Bangladesh restrict West Indies to 142/7 in the first innings of the 23rd match of the T20 World Cup in Sharjah. 

On being asked to bat first, West Indies lost both their openers - Chris Gayle and Evin Lewis - early. Bangladesh kept things tight even after the powerplay as Windies' batters failed to middle the regularly. 

Pollard, in particular, looked uncomfortable and retired himself out in the 13th over after scoring 8 from 16. However, Andre Russell got out in the very next ball to make things worse for West Indies. 

Roston Chase scored a fighting 39 off 45 along with Nicholas Pooran who hit 40 off just 22 balls, including four sixes and one four. 

Jason Holder hit two sixes and Pollard, after coming back to the crease in the last over, smashed a six on the last ball to help West Indies reach 142/7. 

For Bangladesh, Mahedi Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman, and Shoriful Islam got two wickets each. 

Brief Scorecard: 

West Indies - 142/7
