West Indies Nearing A Test Win Against Bangladesh After Kemar Roach Shines With Bowl

By IANS News June 19, 2022 • 10:43 AM View: 1173

West Indies right-arm quick Kemar Roach lived up to his reputation as one of the best fast bowlers in the world as he grabbed his 10th five-wicket haul in Tests and a record 50th wicket at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Stadium, to put the hosts on the verge of victory in the opening Test against Bangladesh on Sunday (IST).

With Bangladesh rallying on 232/6 in the final session on Day 3 after finding themselves in dire straits on 109/6 at one stage, Roach proved West Indies' hero once again by taking three of the last four wickets to fall to send the innings tumbling to 245 all out. In doing so he joined the legendary Michael Holding at 249 wickets on the all-time West Indies list.
