West Indies have drawn first blood in their home Test series against Bangladesh, taking a 1-0 lead after the first match in Antigua. The action now shifts to Kingston, where the two teams will meet in the second and final Test on November 30. Bangladesh's record in the West Indies is bleak, with no Test wins to their name. Considering their current form, it'll take a monumental effort for them to upset the hosts in the second Test. As it stands, West Indies look like favorites.

West Indies clinched their first home Test win in two and a half years, beating Bangladesh by 201 runs in Antigua. Setting Bangladesh a challenging target of 334, the West Indies bowlers were relentless, dismissing the visitors for just 134.
Although the bowlers were outstanding, the batters played a crucial role in setting up the match. The hosts declared at 450 for 9 in the first innings, thanks to a resilient 140-run eighth-wicket stand between Justin Greaves and Alzarri Roach.
Greaves scored his first Test century, while Roach contributed with his highest Test score of 47. Their partnership turned the tide, lifting the team from 261 for 7 on the second morning to a formidable total, which ultimately sealed the victory.
Alick Athanaze, who had scores of 90 and 42 in the previous game, is our top pick for the batter to watch out for in this game. Kavem Hodge is another solid option who can be backed to get some runs.
The bowlers are in excellent form for the home side. Alzarri Joseph, Jayden Seales, Kemar Roach, and Shamar Joseph are turning into a formidable pace bowling quartet at home and will make life difficult for the Bangladeshi batters again.

Bangladesh’s batting let them down once again as they went out tamely in the first Test, scoring 269-9 (dec.) and 132 in their two attempts. Jaker Ali’s 53 was the team’s highest score across two innings in the previous game, showing once again how unreliable their batting unit is.
There is plenty of talent there, but the batters lack the patience and application to grind it out in these conditions. Apart from Jaker, Mominul Haque, Litton Das, and skipper Mehidy Hasan Miraz have been in decent touch as well and you can expect some handy contributions from them.
The bowling attack has been led by Taskin Ahmed, who produced a terrific spell of 6-64 in the second innings of the last Test. Hasan Mahmud and Mehidy have been among the wickets as well. Shoriful Islam got injured towards the end of the previous game and Bangladesh might bring in pacer Nahid Rana as his replacement in the next match.

Sabina Park in Kingston, Jamaica, typically offers a fast and bouncy pitch, favoring pace bowlers, especially early on. As the match progresses, the surface tends to slow down and provide more assistance to spinners. Batsmen need to be watchful against the new ball but can score runs once they adjust to the pace and bounce. The outfield is generally quick, rewarding well-timed shots. Overall, it's a pitch that provides something for everyone.
Scattered thunderstorms are expected throughout the Test with cloudy skies. The match is hence likely to be disrupted.
The average first innings score at Kingston, Jamaica is 317. It comes down to 149 in the fourth innings. The team batting first will look to set a score of around 320-330 runs.
Three of the last four Tests at Sabina Park have been won comfortably by the team batting first. However, the weather for the first day of the match is expected to be cloudy and windy and this might tempt both captains to bowl first and utilize the conditions to get early wickets.
After a commanding performance in the first Test, the West Indies seem to have Bangladesh's number. The visitors, in contrast, struggled to make an impact. Bangladesh's bowlers possess quality and are expected to trouble the opposition again, but their batting lacks the resilience needed to succeed on these wickets. Expect West Indies to maintain their momentum and wrap up the series with a second straight win.
West Indies are favorites to win this Test and take the series 2-0.
