Mushfiqur Rahim began his captaincy with a win. His
unbeaten 41 runs off 26 balls helped Bangladesh to completed their first
win against West Indies in a T20 match as well as the very first match
of the tour of West Indies. In the nerve breaking situation of four
required to win off the last two balls, Mushfiqur lashed Ravi Rampaul
for a huge six over deep midwicket to provide the closing twist in a
game that swung dramatically in front of packed stands. He was judged
man of the match for his heroic captain's knock.
Earlier Marlon Samuels topscored for West Indies with 58 runs of 42 balls to reach his team 132 for the loss of eight wickets. Later he took two wickets also with a tight bowling.
