    Holder takes a single.

    This is exactly what West Indies needed.

    And again! Crucial runs, these.

    Shot! Jason Holder slaps Mustafizur over the leg side for six.

    There is nothing more that Dwayne Bravo could really do. They needed big runs in this final over.

    It was a simple chance.

    Bravo c Soumya b Mustafizur 1 (WI 123-7)

    Another! West Indies are falling apart yet again.

    A big swing from Dwayne Bravo, which he probably needed to do, but can only slice a simple catch to cover.

  7. WI 123-6published at 19 overs

    Right then. One over to go. West Indies have probably already exceeded their expectations from where they were, so how many more can they add?

    Catching has been a problem for Bangladesh in the last couple of games.

    He has made an absolute meal of that. Did he even get a hand on that?

  9. dropped catch

    Holder smashes the ball out to the cover boundary and it's another dropped catch! Straight to him, as well. Bangladesh's fielding hasn't backed up their bowling today.

    I like that he hasn't gone to his variations here. It is a horrible hack from Roston Chase.

    He held the innings together but he hasn't been able to finish it properly. He needed to be not out to do it properly.

    West Indies are getting checked at the end of the innings and all of a sudden 140-150 looks a long way away.

  12. wicket

    Chase b Shoriful 39 (WI 119-6)

    Two in two! Full, straight, heave and miss. Chase's 39 from 46 balls comes to an end in rather ugly fashion.

    That is a shame for Nicholas Pooran because he was just really starting to find some touch. The field was set perfectly.

    That could be a huge moment in this game.

    Pooran c Naim b Shoriful 40 (WI 119-5)

    Maybe not.

    Pooran tries to hit another six and fair enough, too - but it's straight to the fielder instead as he doesn't quite get hold of it. There go West Indies hopes of posting a decent-ish total, you'd imagine.

  16. WI 119-4published at 18 overs

    Another profitable over for the West Indies, they take 16 from it. It's probably come too late, but Nicholas Pooran is on strike for the 19th over which could prove to be very useful.

    These runs are gold dust. That is another great shot. The bowler is now under pressure.

    Roston Chase now has a chase to make. He just needs to get Pooran back on strike for me.

    These are huge and valuable runs.

    Something up with the pitch, you say? Pooran smashes six more! Precious runs, these.

    He is a power hitter Pooran and he's done well to get underneath that because it barely bounced.
